What it takes to take on Sherarax in melee?

As the title says, what do you guys think that's necessary -stats, equipment, weapon skills, etc.- to be able to kill Sherarax in melee? No bear traps, no wands, just pure plain and crude (?) melee.

To kill Sherarax in straight-up, no tricks melee? Well, you can either be Petrus, or... Well no I don't think Petrus could even kill Sherry. So you basically have to be Valpurus. Or Slob. I bet Slob could do it.

I would say the deciding factor is pure luck

Slob would do it bare handed.

Slob is the #1 doctor reccomended cure for Listening problems.

slob doesnt have a sherry problem, sherry has a slob problem.

Slob can punch Petrus in the face with both hands tied behind his back.

One time I asked Slob to dress up as Santa for a Christmas party I was having for my children. Anyway, Slob shows up as Santa, says I've got goodies for you kids. He reaches into his bag and proceeds to hand out scrap metal and cigarettes to them. Then he takes off his beard and says There's no Santa cause I ate him!

Well, back to the topic... Once I had 80 A&Lstr, 130 dex and agi, 50+ perc, 17 level in large swords skill + 18 acustomization, haste, levitation, golden eagle feather gear (my armor had over 40 AV), valpurium two-handed sword +13, Valpurus Justifier. I zapped Sherry with slow wand and she did killed me with her second whip attack by decapitation. She needs rebalancing.

No, she needs avoiding.

HOLY SHIT YOU ARE PLAYING THE WRONG GAME

Really. Where the hell is that line about how winning is supposed to be a bug?

Ah yes, you are talking about my moment of Glory.

Lurk the Bay12 forums, somewhere someone gets a notion that IVAN is a fun neat game, but is unwinnable at the moment.
