[munchies] I have been playing ultra-rogue for a few weeks now and I still have not figured out the following things: 1) Is there anyway to prevent being petrified by a Basilic??? The rings sustain health and of alertness didn't help at all. 2) What is the purpose of the ring of sustain health? 3) Why is the ring of adornment worth so much? Is it of any use? 4) What do you do with the artefacts? I have tried everything I could think of, but nothing happens. 5) Do the scroll of nothing and staff of nothing have any uses? 6) How useful is a staff of Degenerate Monster? They seem to get weaker, but they sure keep figthing. To all the pro's out there who know the answers, please mail me and I will summarize to the net if there is some request. vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv Alain Brossard, CS Dept., U.

The rings > sustain health and of alertness didn't help at all. think. what does petrified tunr you into? now, what allows you to move through it? >2) What is the purpose of the ring of sustain health? should be obvious. what state are you in when you are not healthy? think of synonyms that are used in messages on the screen. >3) Why is the ring of adornment worth so much? Is it of any use? what is the meaning of life? everything has a purpose and a logical place in the urogue universe (unlike some of the arbitrariness on hack). if you know it's worth so much, i assume you've try to sell it. have you tried wearing it EVERYWHERE? >4) What do you do with the artefacts?

All that I can figure out is that there is a certain chance that you will be able to activate it. All I can say to you is keep at it, eventually it will work. -- ############################################################################## # All that is gold does not glitter, # ARPA: warren@ll-xn.arpa # # Not all those who wander are lost; # UUCP: seismo!ll-xn!warren # # The old that is strong does not whither, # CSNET:ll-xn%warren@CSNET-RELAY # # Deep roots are not reached by the frost. # BITNET:ll-xn%warren@WISCVM # # -- Bilbo # # ##############################################################################
