Talk:Black market (UnNetHack)

In 5.1.0, you can not tame monster by spell in black market, but feed cat or dog still work. --Zgyt4033 (talk) 21:12, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Ideas for stopping Sam that DON'T work (couldn't think of a place to put them in the article):

• Pit fort (flying)
• Boulder fort (doesn't even slow her down)
• Poison insta-kill (poison resist)
• Outrunning/out-teleporting (much faster than you, 12/13 chance of pain)
• Luring Sam out of the Black Market and into a normal, conflict and teleport ready level
• Pacifying Sam as a shopkeeper in the second level design
• Relying on tame monsters or conflict outside of very specific scenarios
• Having a huge wall of enemies between you and Sam while you make a break for the exit (almost made it too...)

It's possible to kill Sam and Black marketeers with strong pet. You can tame a domestic animal with food then polymorph it or cast create familiar spell to get it. Boulder fort can trap peaceful Sam, at least when the only way out is occupied by your character. Let your strong pet(s) finish him.--Zgyt4033 (talk) 04:25, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
