FIQHack/Pointers
Resistances
Items that grant a "resistance" such as rings or object properties on armor, grant full immunity. Races and roles that have starting "resistances" get immunities in FIQhack as well, but level-up resistances, and any other sources of a resistance only halve the damage. Items that grant a resistance or an immunity will be labeled appropriately if you are confused, and the Oracle offers enlightenment as a service for gold!
Monsters
Monsters cast spells like players do, which means they'll hit you with all their best spells until they run out of mana. Don't underestimate gnome wizards!
Armor
Cloak of Deflection gives MC3, consider it as an endgame cloak.
All DSM except for Silver and Gray has been buffed. If you can get reflection and magic resistance elsewhere, consider blue and orange DSM!
Wands / Attack Spells / Dragonbreath
The above can now ignore reflection, so you'll want not just reflection, but also resistances or immunities to all the elemental damage types.
Expert Skills
Having expert skill in wand and a blessed wand equals "master" level skill effects. For many wands, expert skill doesn't matter, but for many wands it does; here's a selection of some of the best effects:
<FIQ> if you want to abuse special levels with master wands,use locking
<FIQ> it replaces doors/doorways with a secret door, acting as a wall until you uncover it
<FIQ> other nice things you can do with master wand
<FIQ> light up entire levels
<FIQ> detect traps with SDD wand
<FIQ> cancel everything, including Rodney, or riders
<FIQ> use polymorph offensively and have it actually be useful
Expert divinations allows you to detect Fooproofing status with the Identify spell.
Expert matter spells allow you to polymorph enemies down in level (as with the wand).
