-'''Ghouls''' are one of the nastier threats in [[the Crypt]]. Their brutal melee attacks will damage even the most heavily armoured of characters, they tend to appear in packs, they can move at normal speed, and they have over twice the health of a [[skeletal warrior]]. Fortunately, they have no defences beyond their tremendous [[HP]] and the standard [[undead]] immunities.

-*[[Dispel Undead]] is an option, although it will take 4-5 casts to kill one on average. It may be better to simply use high-level [[Conjurations]], especially if you can line the entire pack up in a hallway and hit several at once. Melee characters have a harder time of things, but can use weapons of [[holy wrath]], choke points, and stair dancing to make the situation a little easier.
+*[[Dispel Undead]] is an option, although it can take 4-5 casts to kill one at lower power (and can only be used in melee range).

-*[[Yredelemnul]] will eventually gift you allied ghouls as you worship him. These allies are durable and powerful as is, but can be made significantly deadlier if allowed to use weapons and armour. Press '''CTRL + [[T]]''' to command them to use equipment they come across (or '''hold * for 3 seconds, release, and then press T''' if playing online with certain web browsers). A band of ghouls toting [[crossbow]]s or [[great mace]]s is a force to be reckoned with.
