Well oh, alright then, the writ is withdrawn. ;)

Okayokay, so I forgot about elixirs 'n stuff. But I have never seen
elixirs for sale, and I'm 26th level. Is it only on the higher
difficutlies ? (I've only ever played nightmare level once).

I've also only maxed out dex. majic is like 8 or so away,
and I don;t find many elixirs. :(

Scott.
