-Ammits are not especially threatening for a hero that can reach Gehennom, but their movement speed of 16 and decently strong attacks can make quite unwelcome surprises for unfortunate early-game [[heroes]] that attempt to convert an [[altar]] belonging to Anhur or Offler&mdash;[[Binder]]s, [[Priest/dNetHack|Priests]], [[Tourist/dNetHack|Tourists]], and [[Wizard/dNetHack|Wizards]] have to be extremely careful when attempting [[sacrifice]]s at such altars.

 While the same generally holds true if a foolhardy player tries to blitz their magic vault with an under-prepared hero of any [[role]], ammits are actually one of the more welcome options to encounter: a hero that creates an opening into the vault and avoids crossing the surrounding water can freely pick apart the beast at range with whatever options they have on hand.

-Ammits are not especially threatening for a hero that can reach Gehennom, but their movement speed of 16 and decently strong attacks can make quite unwelcome surprises for unfortunate lower-level [[heroes]] that attempt to convert an altar belonging to Anhur or Offler&mdash;they are also among the somewhat more difficult monsters that can guard magic item vaults as a result.
