The guidebook says a lot about corpse effects--

According to the guidebook, only trolls can eat doppleganger king corpses (I wonder if others can eat them when starving?); and it gives a 50% chance of increase in each stat.

Yuh, others can also eat them but having stomacemptia with you is better. Cursed ones are better than bless and uncursed. They immediately starve that u are force to eat something and so they must never be consumed in the middle of a battle. Anyway, if u can find a doppleganger king corpse, that's great. I found it once with a dwarf warrior but too bad no herb to starve me. Anyway, doppleganger family deflects missiles, hence long bows of hunting are useless. :( But wearing a bless ankh with food pres Skill will helps a lot.

U are right. If the barbarian missed that blow, imagine the next blow of the doppleganger king. Pretty worse, i must say.

Me either. Of course, my fondness for mindcrafters might have something to do with it (natural confusion resistance).

Even if a doppelganger king could be hit by the long bow of hunting, hunting only works on animals. It says so on www.adom.de

"The long bow of hunting now only works with full effects when used against animals. "
under version history, Version 0.9.9 gamma 15

Oh and doppelganger kings fall easily to death ray.

But--"with full effects" could mean that "of hunting" works, to a lesser degree, on non-animals.

And yes, I'm an optimist. :)

hahah yes u are, but i think he wrote that to prevent ambiguity.

If he wrote "...only works against animals" ppl might start thinking that it wouldn't produce corpses from other monsters.

However you still could be right, i've got no real evidence bar that line, and knowing the fact that TB is rather a nit-picky person at times.

Just found this out...the cute dog corpse not only curses and dooms--it removes Fate Smiles and Lucky. In other words, eat it and your poor hungry troll is going to be RNG fodder.

Yep...I lost a promising character because I accidently ate that corpse.That's what happens when you play late at night,I suppose.

Good tactics to kill doplerganger king is change tactic to coward:) And just wait to first atack DK. He usualy misses:) And than swith tactic to berserker and just kill him:) If you miss... Ooo it's a problem;) The best weapon is phase dagers, because DK didin't copy a special powers of PC and weapons:). Ate dopplergangers coprse, troll haven't any problems. Munch Munch Munch;)
Other race, just starving (stomacepthia:)) and eat coprse from the floor
