Talk:Foodless

Monster detection?

I don't think skilled monster detection is a good substitute for telepathy in a foodless game unless you're a Wizard, since casting spells costs nutrition for a non-Wizard. djao 07:04, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

Good point. Still, it's way better than nothing, and I believe a tourist YAAP first brought this trick to my attention. (Sadly, I can't find the post anymore.) Essentially, even a foodless character with rings of polymorph and polymorph control has access to unlimited nutrition if you can deal with your stats random walking (hint: alchimize potions obtained from throne farming).

Cool. I see that you added a phrase for Wizards. I tweaked the sentence a bit more; feel free to adjust as necessary. djao 07:29, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. Your quality of writing is way better than mine, so I'm going to leave it. Tjr 12:33, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

Trap evasion

If you ride a dragon, do you miss all those obnoxious fire traps, or is it just trap doors, holes, pits? If yes, that could double for fire resistance.
