death despite flying
The article claims you don't turn to stone if you fly down a hole. However, that that just happened to me. "While falling, you touch the corpse...". Tjr 21:10, August 9, 2010 (UTC)
- Actually it's just confusingly worded; testing it, you won't be stoned if you fly down stairs while burdened or worse (which would normally cause you to touch the corpse), but jumping down a hole does in fact kill you regardless. I'll reword it, as I thought that was safe too. -Ion frigate 00:19, August 10, 2010 (UTC)
monsters using cockatrice eggs

- It's at weapon.c, line 369: cockatrice eggs are the preferred ranged weapon for any monster who has them (and can use ranged weapons, of course). --Ilmari Karonen 16:32, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
Self-polymorph with corpse
Why are ravens, crocodiles, and dragons in the list of forms unable to use a cockatrice corpse? None of these forms are able to wield any sort of weapon. -- Qazmlpok 16:52, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
