Item destruction when destroying the drawbridge

Recently, i destroyed a drawbrdige (Castle one) because i was afraid of another monster doing it while i was on it. Before, i had killed many monsters on the drawbridge. It seems that some (or all) the items landed in the moat. Is it only some, and could someone add it in the article?Newtkiller 12:42, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

Grund's Stronghold

It appears that the drawbridge in GS functions as normal, except the Bell of Opening does nothing against it. Striking, lock/knock all work fine. Anyone verify this in source? --AileTheAlien 20:36, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Only instadeath

"Player deaths from the drawbridge are relatively rare, but are particularly feared nonetheless. Likely this is because it is the only non-delayed instadeath for which the immediate cause is outside the player's direct control (a monster zapping a wand of striking), and for which no common resistance provides any protection."

Is this true? I can't think of any counterexamples, but it seems like a pretty broad statement. Scorchgeek (talk) 13:48, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
