-*Sigmund's damage output in melee is devastating for low-level characters, but his biggest threats are in his spell list. An invisible Sigmund is almost unbeatable in early-game melee, his Throw Flame lets him brutalize you at range, and expect a swift end if he confuses you and you're out of [[potions of curing]].
+*Despite a base damage of 1, Sigmund's damage output in melee is devastating for low-level characters. But an even bigger threat is in his spell list. An invisible Sigmund is almost unbeatable in early-game melee, his Throw Flame lets him brutalize you at range, and expect a swift end if he confuses you and you're out of [[potions of curing]].
 *Avoiding Sigmund is usually the wisest thing you can do. If you find him sleeping early on, just walk away and return once you've gained a few levels and found some better gear.
 *There are some options for low-level characters who want to take him out immediately. [[Mephitic Cloud]] leaves him unable to use magic and almost hopeless in melee, while a few zaps from a good wand will annihilate him.
 **A [[wand of polymorph]] may also turn him into a less deadly form and will probably make him drop his scythe, but it's less of a safe bet; Sigmund the [[centaur (monster)|centaur]] is ''much'' deadlier than normal.
-*If all else fails and you have no choice but to engage him early, don't be afraid to use any useful potions you've identified. [[Berserk]], [[haste]], or [[might]] go a long way toward helping you take him down, and a few [[potions of heal wounds]] can keep you in the fight longer than you'd otherwise last.
