The cornuthaum fell off and I learned pets wont use an amulet of flying. She already has reflection so an amulet of lifesaving would be the only valid item left,almost a must since she doesn't leave a corpse.--[[Special:Contributions/67.168.228.21|67.168.228.21]] 14:21, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Revision as of 03:12, 5 December 2012


Status of the saddled Nightmare (lawful): Level 12 HP 24(24) Pw 78(78) AC -2, tame, fast, carrying you.

Just had to see if it could be done. Next, time to see if I can put One Eyed Sam to work for me.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.168.228.21 (talkcontribs)

You can't, as shopkeepers can never be tamed even after being polymorphed.
Does Nightmare's covetous nature make him act as an unusual saddle, or is it just like riding a really strong warhorse? -- Qazmlpok (talk) 13:19, 3 December 2012 (UTC)


Playing on a local windows machine and I don't know how to drop GTK into wizard mode, so I got her "savescummed" as a tame, fast cockatrice. Ran through it twice so far. First, to see if it worked, and a second time, to repolymorph her into an intelligent monster so she'd take a cornuthaum and an amulet. Got an error the first time. Something about creating and icon for a steed.Is "unusual saddle" a actual term? I'm trying to recreate it to post it verbatim. The second time worked almost without a hitch at least no error. The cornuthaum fell off and I learned pets wont use an amulet of flying.

It seems as if I'm talking to myself but hey the info's here if anyone wants it. I've gotten Nightmare to work twice w/o any errors. Still stable after saving the game and dismounting and remounting her. In both cases she was repolymorphed into a kobold warrior(what are the odds?), she was wearing an amulet of life saving, a cornuthaum, and some form of body armor (shirt, armor, or cloak) that she broke out of when polymorphing back to her original form.
