So if Ischaldirh spawns after a specific date, is it possible to make him spawn on Attnam for instance? Or he only spawns on dungeon levels?
He probably will spawn as soon as you enter a dungeon again.

I remember it being 20

yeah. 44 int is a bit much. Petrus only has 40. I just thought that chances are that when he spawns you would already be pretty far along.

You would still have to know where he is, have a clear shot at him, and pursue him if he teleports away at any point.
He wont teleport away if he can't see you. At least that's what I've seen.

Just smack him around until he drops, it seems a lot more efficient than using wands to me.

He can't cast on invisible mindless cold/no-blooded creatures at all
I cant think of any monsters that are mindless and warm-blooded in the game.

how viable of a strategy would it be to polymorph into a golem (light crystal or valpurium? I'm not sure what the best golem material is), make yourself invisible, and blast him with wands?
I tried evading him in wizard mode as a skeleton in the past. He makes no big movements if he cant see you. After testing in wizard mode it seems as though no wand works well against him. You dont really need to use wands if you can become a valpurium golem though, he's a total wimp. Though other materials can also work. Mithril can do it with some difficulty. Nothing below that would work. Light crystal doesn't come even close. If you have a scroll of repair it would probably help. Make sure to corner him and use scrolls of detect material to track him.

which can be cast on anything he can see (which is basically everything thanks to the 60 Int, ESP and Infravision):
He can't cast on invisible mindless creatures at all.

I ran into Sherarax for the first time last night.
You never forget the first time.

1. You probably know about the "s" method already. Here's what I think: Becuase bosses are leveled I think you should flee them when you first find them and then fight them later when you have the ability to beat them. Though my general rule of thumb is if you don't have to kill them dont try. Have an archangel kill them if you're lucky enough to get one.

2. I think it's only 1 regardless of enchantment.

3.Look around for walls that you cant find the doors to. If it's not next to the tunnel then I have no clue.

4. Allow them to consume valuables and drop the potion on the floor.

5. The only things I can think of is to wait a while until they evaporate or stab something until it comes off.

6. Strong boxes protect items inside them better. Don't put potions in chests or strong boxes. Put potions that are important in cans. Dont carry around important books with you(read them or store them somewhere else). Scrolls and wands dont take up much space and you can keep just about as many as you want in a strongbox. I would only carry a chest if I couldn't find a strongbox.

7: It's not really a question about who's worse. Their both very bad. He will appear if you have a really high danger level I think. Unless you get really unlucky I think should appear after sherarax. Guess why most people dont get to meet him. Oh, and also he is invisible and teleports away when you get close.

8. If you can find 2 books of Atavus early game then you're golden. The most useful gods IMO: Ducilis(Her music is really useful), Loricatus(you get stronger armor in early game and repair scrolls in late game), Cruentus(potions are REALLY useful), and of course any of the gods that can get you fed. Other gods are situational, so they can either save your life or just get you in a deeper pile of shit.

9. I heard Ischaldirh tends to spawn there. Also take every precation and preparation possible. You know how some games have those optional "hell levels?" Well these are IVANs hell levels, so you can imagine. I once got down there in LIVAN(I haven't even bothered in.50), and it's tough. You got a lot of mages down there and high value material golems. Prepare for lost limbs, lost weapons, and lost lives.

10. I don't really know. Im not sure if Vlad has infared vision, so if your invisible that might be a problem. Though 4 tile monsters tend to be kind of weird in general.

So resurrected Jenny is your friend -- are her spawns also your friends?
Well, friends in the way a punching bag is a boxers friend.

There should be some kind of named kamakazie dwarf. Like a grizzled kamakazie dwarf. He is spawned without any limbs and rolls around, and even though he rolls around he is incredibly fast, almost as fast as sherarax. He is pretty much immune to fire and carrys around tons of explosives. And if he runs out? No problem. He just summons up some more.

I think it is something the devs put in becuase they have not yet determined the sacrificial value of corpses in the current version. Though I don't really know what it's supposed to imply. Like I can't really think of anything I could do with a spider corpse that would be all that useful.

Also yeah, you can sacrifice food. Silva likes fruit and will accept it, but it has almost no value for any other god and they wont. Seges likes loafs of any kind. You can even sacrifice detatched limbs(of yours or a monsters) for a little bit of favor if you want.

Reviving jenny for pineapples sounds like a waste of a wand charge.
