Good lord, you should at least have kept it for the Sauron and Morgoth fights. Being able to do effectively 21x damage with bolts (or 24x with Slay Evil bolts) is [i]ridiculous[/b]. Say the bow and...

Yeah, Fundin should stick around more or less as-is for "game mythology" reasons, not so much setting mythology.
As for the existing classes, some thoughts:

Regular expressions are one of those "just because you can, doesn't mean you should" kinds of things. Often a complicated regex is better-represented as a few string splitting operations and a simple...

Disenchantment resistance is not a requirement for the final fights. Artifacts have disenchantment resistance. It's not perfect; IIRC 2/3rds of the time they avoid losing pluses. But that should be...

And the choice under the -5 speed regime would be: is it worth eating the speed penalty to take the direct route to where I want to go? It's a "soft barrier": you can cross it if you want, but you're...

I have absolutely done this. Indeed I have flat-out forgotten my stash and just merrily climbed down the stairs, only to immediately realize I just lost a lot of useful consumables.

Note that this will have the odd behavior of "filling you up" to Hungry if you trigger the trap when Weak. :)
