'''Wishing ''' is an opportunity to be granted any single [[item ]] of the player's choicechoosing.
== Getting a wish ==
There are several ways to obtain a wish, including:
* Reading a [[Scrolls|scroll of wishing]].
* Rubbing an [[Light source|oil lamp]].
* Drinking from a [[Fountains|fountain]].
* Using the (X) command in wizmode, thorugh which you will gain 5 scrolls of wishing.
== What to wish for ==
IVAN has a lot of many useful items , but the following are extremely useful good and rare enough to be a good idea for a wish. The data is accurate prime candidate for v0.50wishing.
* [[Scroll of Change Material]]: This is a great way of improving your gear and limbs. Which [[materials]] you can wish for depends on your [[intelligence]]; thus you may wish to [[polymorph]] to a more intelligent [[Monsters|monster]] before using this. Good materials include eg. [[Phoenix Feather]], [[Mithril]] and [[Octiron]].=== Equipment ===
* Either an [[Scrolls:Category:Artifacts|Scroll of Tamingartifact weapon]]: There is nothing like or a good [[Pets|petthunder hammer]] but do not try to use this on any quest monster: Way more powerful than normal weapons. * Some also grants various [[Wand of CloningStatus Effects|magical effects]]: These by themselves are not useful, but if you do have some other useful item . It is sometimes wiser to clone, this is worth its weight in gold. With one charge you can clone wish for a pile broken weapon instead of five an intact one, since the game often generates better [[materials]] for broken itemsto compensate the need of repairing. Note that certain items like wands of cloningnot all artefacts are wishable, scrolls of wishing or scrolls of charging cannot so you may be cloned because this could be abused. It is therefore sometimes wise forced to drop more than five items in pile in case the game doesn't allow some to be clonedwish for a different item if you pick one of these. If you have a powerful pet like Those wishable include:**[[IvanMjolak]] or a **[[mammothTurox]], you may lure it above the items so it will be cloned, too. You can also stand on the item pile and zap yourself, in which case you will be copied along with the stack. Note that when cloning a pet or yourself, the clone will be born without any equipment and only four items under it will be copied.**[[Saal'Thul]]** [[Wand of RessurectionVermis]]: If you have managed to get a unique monster as a pet, this may be extremely useful. It may also be used to quickly replace lost limbs.
* [[Cloak]] or [[Ring]] of [[Invisibility]]: Invisibility is a great tactical advantage, but it also causes much more dangerous monsters to be generated.
* [[Amulets|Amulet of Life Saving]]: Basically gives you a second life. That's a *lot*.
* [[Musical Instrument|Magical Whistle]]: Handling more than two pets is almost impossible without this.
* [[:Category:Artifacts|Artifact weapon]] or [[thunder hammer]]: Way more powerful than normal weapons. Some also grants various [[Status Effects|magical effects]]. It is sometimes wiser to wish for a broken weapon instead of an intact one, since the game often generates better [[materials]] for broken items to compensate the need of repairing. Note that not all artefacts are wishable, so you may be forced to wish for a different item if you pick one of these. Those wishable include:
**[[Mjolak]]
**[[Turox]]
**[[Saal'Thul]]
**[[Vermis]]
* [[Holy Banana Amulets|Amulet of Oily OrpivElemental Protection]]: Has terrific explosive power which Grants resistance to all elements. As you can aid you in boss battles. Also trains all be easily obliterated by any [[attributesTrap#Landmine|mine]] when eaten. Be sure to store this in a hard container like the [[Container|strongboxGloomy Caves]], because if it explodes in this may save your inventory, you're in BIG troublelife.
* [[Body armor|Armor of Great Health]]: If you have scrolls of enchant armor, this gives a huge boost to your [[HP]]s. Again, a broken one may have a better material, but usually you want to use a scroll of change material for this one, anyway.
* [[Belts|Belt of Levitation]]: You're flying as long as you have this equipped. Makes you tougher to hit and nearly immune to [[Trap|bear traps and mines]]. Make sure something doesn't step on a mine if you're near one, though; you can still be hit by the blast.
