Request for advice for tackling player ghost
So I found this ghost on the Orcish Mines:
He looks kind of scary. I have several wands (but no skill atm), I have Ru (but no max piety) and potions don't heal me as much as they should. His AC seems very big. I have a plate mail that gives me +2 AC (for a total of 22). I could use wands of acid, scattershot or lighting, use apocalipse and down a !might of !agi.
What should I do? Avoid him? Fight? If I fight him, what are the best tactical options?
And here is my char:
- Code:
Malvoorn's ghost.
The apparition of Malvoorn the Fencer, a journeyman Demonspawn Berserker of
Trog.
Max HP: 115
AC +++++ ++++
EV ++
MR +++
It looks dangerous.
It is immune to poison and negative energy; very resistant to fire and cold;
and resistant to steam.
It can see invisible.
It is intelligent.
It can fly.
It can hit for up to 29 damage.
It is incapable of using stairs
