 Lieutenants are fairly tough to face in solo combat, let alone while surrounded by their lower-ranking comrades: as with other military fighters, drawing them into a corridor is effective for both reducing vulnerability and thinning their ranks, especially if other hostile fighters zap [[attack wand]]s at them to get to you. While a [[wand of death]] is rare enough that [[reflection]] or [[magic resistance]] are not strictly required, said wands can still be a danger to the hero. Additionally, be mindful of leaving [[chickatrice]] and [[cockatrice]] [[corpse]]s around lieutenants with gloves (especially in the Castle or within [[Gehennom]]), and have [[lizard]] corpses or other cures for [[stoning]] ready to go in case.
-Lieutenants possess the same movement [[speed]] of 10 as the rest of the Yendor military and have a low [[Magic resistance (monster)|MR score]] of 15, so while [[poisoned]] weapons and various forms of magic remain effective against them, they may occasionally resist such effects. Lieutenants that generate with a bugle or else pick one up can apply it if any of their fellow fighters nearby are scared or immobilized, which can wake up entire barracks and ruin [[stealth]]-based approaches while scaring [[pet]]s&mdash;this may also awaken other nearby monsters as well if the combat itself does not do so.

 Leftover equipment from lieutenants make a good source of [[polyfodder]], as well as possible replacements for any eroded or lower-[[enchantment]] armor that you or a pet may have&mdash;a lieutenant's long sword can make for a good offhand weapon if the hero can perform [[two weapon combat]], and can be used to [[dip]] for [[Excalibur]] if they have not yet obtained the artifact. Strong [[humanoid]] pets will also appreciate the armor as well as a good-quality long sword.
