-Compared to the spells of {{+ of|resist sleep|and=1|resist poison}}, the spell of endure heat is noticeably less useful: its spellbook is rarer, it costs twice as much [[power]] to use, and it is not as immediately applicable against sources of [[Fire (element)|fire]] compared to those spells and their protection against the dangers that [[sleep]] and [[poison]] present. Even so, it is an important property to have, if not an urgent one, and [[monster]]s with a [[fire horn]], [[wand of fire]] or fiery attacks (e.g. a [[fire ant]] or [[fire elemental]]) can provide cause to utilize the spell.

 Note that the spell does not protect against inventory damage and destruction&mdash;for example, though it can prevent [[instadeath]] from a hero falling into [[lava]], it does not protect their inventory from burning up completely as they sink. Once the hero gains a long-term source of fire resistance, the spellbook becomes a prime candidate for [[blanking]].

 ==Description==
-The spellbook teaches the endure heat spell, a level 2 [[Spellcasting (SLASH'EM)#Protection_spells|protection spell]] which grants temporary [[fire resistance]] for 500 to 1499 (more) turns.  As with similar spellbooks, possessing the temporary intrinsic does not interfere with gaining the permanent one, usually through eating corpses.  The spell has no effect if cast while already possessing permanent intrinsic fire resistance.
+Successfully [[cast]]ing the spell gives the [[hero]] temporary [[fire resistance]] for 500 to 1499 (more) turns&mdash;this does not interfere with gaining fire resistance normally, e.g. through [[eating]] appropriate [[corpse]]s or reaching [[experience level]] 20 as a [[Priest/SLASH'EM|Priest]]. It has no effect if the hero casts it while they already have intrinsic fire resistance.
 ==Strategy==
-Compared to its [[spellbook of resist sleep|sleep-]] and [[spellbook of resist poison|poison-]]warding cousins, this spellbook is noticeably less useful.  It is rarer, costs twice the MP to use, and the only [[instadeath]] it protects against is easily-avoided [[lava]].  While fire resistance is ultimately an important property , it is rarely an urgent one, and most heroes can afford to wait until they find a permanent source.  The spell may still be worth casting in a few specific situations (e.g. around [[fire elemental]]s), but overall the spellbook is a prime candidate for blanking.

-Heroes following food-restricting conducts may find the spell somewhat more useful, although the more abundant [[vegan]] sources of fire resistance in SLASH'EM mean that this will likely only concern those who are entirely [[foodless]].  Such player characters may find the spell particularly useful in [[Gehennom]], as a slot-free way to prevent permanent HP loss from [[fire trap]]s.
+Heroes adhering to a food-restricting [[conduct]], e.g. [[vegetarian]] or [[foodless]] may find this spell to be useful for a longer duration, though there are also more [[vegan]]-friendly sources of fire resistance in SLASH'EM and SlashTHEM. The spell is also especially useful if a player is observing [[atheist]] conduct alongside the given conducts, which prevents [[crowning]] to obtain the intrinsic. Such heroes may find the spell particularly useful as a slotless form of preventing maximum [[HP]] loss from [[fire trap]]s, especially in [[Gehennom]].
