You want an advantage? Tell him you will duel him nude. Hehe, I did this
before a while ago. I told the person (I think he was an
warrior/ranger/paladin, I cant remember exactly it was a while ago) and I
told him I would fight him, directly after we both suicided by attacking a
high level guard, and then not looting our corpse. Of course he had no idea
that monks pretty much repop combat ready, he figured it would be two
unarmored, unarmed people relying on skills like kick to do damage. So
while he was hitting me for 4 and 5 points, and his kicks were doing like
10-12, my punches were landing for 10-12 points, and my tiger claw was
getting him for 9-11 each time. needless to say the imbalance in hitpoints
didn't matter much, it wasn't long before he dropped.
