Weapon skills-using the weapon helps....as does high cunning.
Dodge...dodging...dam pt..Hugh said the higher the stamana, the greater chance
that you will get one.  you get them from being beating up...or beating
someone up(so that's what it looks like to be pounded to a blood pulp)

No..only madallion..besides...you want to be higher PL as most of the monsters
are tough...remember the black Ooze in the tolet...

Some diety's give better rez modifiers...besides..elves never get in i
fight to worry about death  :)

The only adventage is you get your money worth..2 newsletters instead of one
and a turn every week.

When in doute...fake it   :)
