Is killing things you can barely kill worth it?
I use Artificers exclusively. They're a pretty item dependent background for me. (My current KoAr has been lucky enough to pick up a number of wands in the early level (disintegration, polymorph other, paralysis, frost) to buff up his starting equipment of wands of flame and random effects.) Anyway, whenever I see a unique or relatively OoD monster that I know I can kill by using everything I got, I usually decide on doing just that. This usually ends with me using a fair number of charges from my wands, and that's not even taking into account potions I will be quaffing. So I basically use up my resources pretty quickly to kill these things.
I got to ask though... am I doing the right thing by deciding just that?
