I thought I'd miss yellow wands

But I don't*. Good job to devs on balancing that loss with great scroll/potion drops.

*I've not played Mu. Do Mu have no way to haste anymore?

Mummies can theoretically haste by casting shadow creatures and getting things that can cast haste other.

Isn't this only a myth? I mean, there might be slightly more of heal/haste pots, but to me it is not noticeable.

Mummies can haste by following gozag.

well, I don't miss the wands, so there's that. Anecdotal evidence, sure.

No, yellow (and invisibility) wands were brokenly overpowered, especially once you had a stack of scrolls of recharging.

Monsters never haste or otherwise buff the player, though they can buff other player-owned monsters. Yred would be crazy OP if you could get permanent haste+might by enslaving a troll shaman.
