==Prevention from gaining intrinsics?==
I ate a ton of appropriate corpses looking to gain intrinsics and didn't seem to get any. Does this ring also prevent you getting them? -- [[User:Kalon|Kalon]] 23:32, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

 Is this well known? Is it a bug, or "cheating", or "farming"? Or is it the intended behavior? Should it be in the article?

		+	==Using this ring to maximize Strength==
		+	If you have a ring of sustain ability and a large number of low-nutrition food items (such as meatballs), you can boost your Strength to your racial maximum by doing the following:
		+
		+	First, get your nutrition status to "Hungry". Then,
		+
		+	1) Put on the ring of sustain ability.<br />
		+	2) Wait until your hunger status changes to Weak. Normally this reduces Strength by one, but because of the ring, your Strength is unchanged.<br />
		+	3) Remove the ring of sustain ability.<br />
		+	4) Eat a meatball (or enough meatballs to go from Weak to Hungry). Going from Weak to Hungry increases your strength by one.<br />
		+	5) Repeat steps 1 through 4 until your strength reaches its racial maximum.
		+
		+	I checked in Wizard mode, and it seems to work. It it tedious, and it doesn't seem really practical in a real game, unless you're a Healer (who can use Stone to Flesh to make lots of meatballs, and can really use the extra strength).
