I'm not sure if you guys knew this already, but i found a cool way to increase endurance. But since high HP raises the ¨danger level¨ this trick is quite useless, but still i use this and die everytime : D

All you need is a bear trap. I prefer iron and steel traps in the beginning, cause they dont create so much damage to your legs (or hands) and there is no danger of severed limbs.

Just apply the trap and step into it, heal yourself and rip yourself oof the trap and repeat.

I have increased my end from 11 to 13 with only one steelbear trap.

Sorry for my english.

nothing beats the mellis/seges school food trick. But if you are raising endurance by hurting yourself:

1: why not do it fighting plants on UT3, bare handed so you can beat sumo, with banana peals for wicked dex gains/agi, with a broken halberd/scimitar and a shield for Astr, weapon skill, shield skill, and Agi from dodging.

2. when you are healing never heal using the heal command, just run back and forth in an empty corridor and you won;t suffer an agility penalty

I always pump my HP over 300 via mellis/seges it means you get to fight all the named baddies.

Bear traps can take Your leg with them while attempting to escape. Broken bottles for bare feet (& no cloak) also work.

Isnt that better on the early game when an artificial leg greatly improves your LStr?
