Change chaos brand to work well with summons

in my last game with Yred I found a weapon with the best brand ever (chaos), but soon afer I noticed that I should use it with caution. Chaso brand can sometimes incur a miscast effect on monster that results in an explosion. Due to some hidden game mechanics, player is treated as a originator of the explosion, turning all allies it hits hit hostile. It is very annoying and tedious to switch to another weapon when fighting enemies alongside with 2 bone dragons.
The one who was hit by the chaos weapon should take responsibility for the miscast.
