I thought I read that both could be killed by a wand of death. I was just playing as a Wizard on the Astral Plane. I did kill the former that way. However multiple shots of "death" at Pestilence seemed to have no effect. Did I miss something?

Yes - you probably missed Pestilence. The ray from your wand or spell still has to actually hit the monster, and with the Riders' solid AC it's likely to take a few tries on average. --Umbire the Phantom (talk) 22:25, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
