Not true. They don't do too much damage, though. Useful for doing away with floating eyes, leprechauns and things that are a LONG way away - horizontally across a wide room. If the monster gets too close, switch to arrows. (Note that in 5.2, a bow doesn't make arrows all that much better, but in 5.3 throwing arrows without a bow is near useless.) ~| ~| It is true that the monster only becomes confused after blows are ~| traded. More specifically, when you hit. As long as you miss the monster, it won't get confused. Magnifibeast (10-time 5.2 winner, working on 5.3) -- {allegra,cornell,decvax,ihnp4,linus,utzoo}!utcsrgv!dave
