- OK, I have this very snazzy character with everything
- he could ever ask for and more. He is about to enter the
- endgame with two wishes left on his wand of wishing (well
- three counting the final one which destroies the wand).
- What I would like to know is - how can I use these to
- push up my score?
- My impression is that I will want to wish for gold
- or jewels just before finishing the game - if this is
- indeed the best thing to do, then how many gp or jewls
- should I ask for? - ie how many can the wand generate
- with a single wish?
- I could probably drive it indefinitly high if I wanted
- to rummage around in the dungeon for a long time, except
- that the machines here hav a nasty habit of crashing, or
- nethack gets a set fault - so I don't want to futz around.
- If it makes any difference, the version is:
- Unix NetHack Version 3.0i Patchlevel 9
