I was playing hack the other day and all of a sudden this guy said "hey this is the greatest weapon" he of course was weilding one of those vicious little ... genocide first.... monsters 'THE cockatrice' (he was also wearing gloves I might add. He was playing a wizard and had found the gloves and accidentially weilded the bird. Everything he hit turned to stone. He only complained about them twice. 1) first he had to keep attacking the Sob's because they "wearout" 2) second his strength got low and he " You fall down the stairs and a cockatrice hits you on the head --more "you die!". Now my question: can you reallydo this and not die. I mean everthing he hit turned to stone. And second, If you weild one does it hurt your luck. ( this may be a silliy question)
