Best item found near the start of the game?

What? I still find it hard to believe you lost to Richel Decos with a Mjolak and +25 arm strength, that's insane. What was your body armor and gauntlets? Dude, that character was very promising, I feel very bad for ya.

By the way, don't waste charges to clone cans of floating eye flesh. I tried that in wizard mode and even after eating more than 30 cans I didn't get perma esp. Be patient and you'll eventually find two floating eyes. The third you can get by taming the one in the cathedral, so all you really need is find two of them and not let their corpses rot.

Ah thanks for that tip.

Body armor was meteoric steel chain mail I think. Gloves were just leather gauntlets of strength. I never was able to get many scrolls of enchant armor so nothing was enchanted much.

Still it wasn't like he one-shotted me... he hit me about 10 times I think. I have only myself to blame

Probably the worst part is that all that sweet loot was lost forever since there's no bone file in New Attnam.

One time in UT I had a kobold with an ommel tooth bastard sword kill like, 3-4 adventurers in a row.
