Maybe. I think I'll stick to my +2,+2 TWS that I start off with, though. From what I remember, a staff of striking is just a +3,+3 staff. That means that you get a 15% better chance of hitting the monster, and you do 4-9 points of damage from each blow (not counting other bonuses). better than a +1,+1 mace, but I think that you can do better. -- ihnp4--\ fritzz the Zebra decvax--\ akgua----\ "No matter where you go, dcdwest---\ there you are." kgbvax-----\ ucbvax-------- sdcsvax -- sdcc3 -- fritzz
