Re: YASD: Spriggan Enchanter of Dithmengos

You can get the ghost's spell list by examining it (as well as resistances, but note that ghost MR is dramatically underreported and SInv is not reported at all, so ignore those). But you probably want to check out the morgue file so you can see its HP, AC, EV, real MR, etc.
You can find a morgue file by using listgame.

Re: YASD: Spriggan Enchanter of Dithmengos

I only play locally, so listgame isn't going to be useful. I tend to use the same name over and over, so the morgue file isn't going to help either. I didn't realize you could examine them to get the spell list. That's probably the way to go in my case. Thanks. Now I am going to back up the bones file so I can restore and delete it about 500 times while I rage.

Is it because MR info is based on items it had or something?
