They're cake after that. (2) Wand of disintegration. (3) Wand of anti-matter. A few other notes: Using a magic-user and employing the wraith/wight 'feature' I had: 25th level 1500 hp's (use healing as you do enchants) intell 300 streng 150 wisdom 150 dex 150 const 25 +102 plate armor (ac -100) +40,+40 two-handed sword I had become a human wand of disintegration by then!!! Remember that demogorgon, horned devils, hezrou, and glabrezus can all lead to wraiths/wights (demogorgon summons glabrezus). Use a cursed wand of disintegration on a quartermaster!!! It is great to see something like below. Follow this with a blessed scroll of hold monster and have a party!!!! ---------------- @..qqqqqqqq....| |..qqqqqq......| |....qqqqqq....| ------------+--- Another bug worth checking out (it may have been fixed): Go into the trading posts with a full armful of stuff. Trying to buy something will tell you you cannot carry it and identify it for you. It doesn't even cost you a transaction. Another bug worth checking out (it may have been fixed): Go ahead and try to acquire the amulet with a scroll of acquirement. I've had up to three at one time (they sell nicely in shops).
