Go to the corner of a room (far from a door) and depress the "s" key for 2-second intervals until you get back at least 75% of your hit points. 2. Run like hell from your adversary into a known safe room and then RUN (don't walk) back at your attacker. 3. If you see three or more attackers closing in on you, get to a doorway or a hallway. This way you only have to worry about two things at once (at Most) and you also have an escape route. 4. If you find a teleportational trap and you are being chased by a Centaur (or worse) run to the trap. Does anyone have any good ways of defeating Trolls and Xorns (besides a Staff of Life Draining)? ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
