As for "being without weapon or armor" being rare, that's not what the writer said. When you are not WEARING any armor, and read "Enchant Armor", or you are not WIELDING a weapon, and read "Enchant Weapon", you will get the "strange sense of loss." While the latter is highly uncommon, the former happens all the time, like on levels 9-16 when you haven't found any leather armor. -- Allan Pratt ...ihnp4!inuxc!iuvax!apratt
