OK, I'll accept the gnome with the wand of disintegration as essentially unavoidable. That is, one who spawns with one (it can happen) rather than one who picks one up. The streaks happen because of...

I know this is from over a month ago, but I'm really not sure you're giving Nethack a fair shake here. Nethack is little different from Angband or Crawl in this regard - if you're knowledgeable,...

Most of your points are entirely valid. I would add that nexus is not usually a serious threat at the point where you're unlikely to have nexus resistance. Some out of depth nexus hounds could pose a...

If the issue is that ranged combat is too powerful, then I'm not sure that reducing stack size is the correct way to go about nerfing it. After all, ranged combat was always this powerful - it was...

In fullscreen, the inventory only comes to the foreground over the upper-right 1/9th of the playing area. I didn't know that at default size it consumes the entire viewable area - though that makes...
