How can I cast Melf's Acid Arrow if I'm not a magic-user?
  • 1 of 5: Nax hinted that there might be a magic ring that could do it for you.
  • 2 of 5: And he was right!
  • 3 of 5: Search the NE rooms.
  • 4 of 5: The Ring of Melf is in a chest in the room with the alchemist's apparatus that can be used to make a magic item. (BTW: The two ingredients the apparatus needs are in nearby rooms. Check all containers carefully, including corpses.)
  • 5 of 5: To use the ring, just right-click on it in inventory, choose to cast its once-a-day acid arrow, and then click on the target.
