I've stumbled on two wands of wishing in the shop (price id'd and then formally id'd with scrolls as wishing 0:2 and 0:3). Now that's a lot of wishes and I'm thinking that it would be better to spend then sooner rather than dyding with unused wishes. Also I haven't sacrificed yet so I can reliably score a couple of artifacts. I'm thinking the best idea is to use them up now and get well equipped to hopefully avoid some YASD. This means getting Reflection, Magic Resistance and some weaponry So given I can have 11 wished if I included scrools of charging how about:

1. 2 Blessed Scrolls of charging
2. Blessed Eyes of the Overworld
(magic resistance in an otherwise unused slot 3. Blessed +2 Silver Dragon Scale Mail
4. Bleesed +2 Magicbane
7. Blessed +2 rustproof Frostbrand (not 100% chance should I ask for this before the Eyes?
5. Blessed rustproof +2 gauntlets of power
6. Blessed fireproof +2 pair of speed boots
So I'd have 4 left
8. Blessed scrolls of genocide? (Mind Flayers and Liches)
9. Blessed Tinning kit? (better get the intrinsics sorted early) or Bag of Holding
10 - saved

Given that there is the wand in the castle to add another few later.

I haven't ascended yet and my best game got down to Orcustown before I wandered back up and got YASD while polypiling. Hence I'd like to give myself the best possible chance.
