Just chatting about a game

Have to pick one to drop: 2 potions of healing; 2 potions of life restore; 2 staves of detect evil; ring of dex +4 (to be stored, not used). Drop dex ring?

[Mondkalb]

Restore life isn't that necessary. It is often in stock in town.

Don't melee disenchanters if you don't have resistance!

Depends on what you have at home. Don't drop the healing potions, though. I usually stock potions of restore life levels at home.

You could post your dump in the ladder - would help us give more detailed advice, and allow you to see your name in the lights

Keep.the +4 DEX ring in case you find a good heavy weapon. You will want DEX then. Regen amulet is indeed worthless for half-troll, since you have it innately.

Ah, I assumed it stacked - but already dumped it. OK, dump the restore life it is.

[Petoften]

Darn - just found a ring of STR +4, so have to keep either that or the DEX +4 etc...

So I can drop either 2 staves of detect evil, +4 STR ring, or 4 potions of berserk strength.

OK, that's what I did on both.

Lerrtroll is in the ladder.

Frustrating thing is, it seem I can't get back the several disenchants even with scrolls of enchant on the good items, because the stats are too high.

[Petoften]

STR ring actually changes STR to 18/*** so it's not getting the full 4 STR.

It is technically possible to enchant up to +15, but usually you won't get much beyond +10 unless you spam the spell or prayer on an item.

And warrior can't do that... already wasted some scrolls.

Think I'll drop the potions of berserk strength, those seem for sale more often than the other stuff.

[Petoften]

Since I'm dropping them anyway, I drank a potion of berserk strength to see how much it increased damage - only from 336 to 341.

Bottom line: don't mess with disenchantment if you care about your weapon or how. (Armor doesn't matter so much.) You'll get resistance eventually when you can stop worrying. In the mean time: don't fight them at all, or use archery and phase door. (Melee is fine if you are expecting a better weapon, but even there: Amrod is a pretty good bow. Shame to wreck it.)

4) 20 Rounded Pebbles (1d2) (+6,+4)
5) 11 Iron Shots (1d4) (+4,+7) {??}
     You do not know the full extent of this item's powers.
     
6) 17 Iron Shots (1d4) (+8,+8) {??}
     You do not know the full extent of this item's powers.
     
7) 25 Mithril Shots of Slay Animal (2d4) (+10,+17)
     Slays animals.

You can drop all of these because you are using a bow.
That will free up an inventory slot.
Also, why do you have a cursed amulet in your home? You can also get rid of the bow and the sling in your home.
