I've done some experimenting as the wizard and found that +7 plate mail
always works, "3 +3 crysknives" sometimes works and sometimes gives
you 3 -3 crysknives (does anyone know if weilding 3 weapons works any
better than weilding one?). You can only wish for one wand at a time,
3 of anything else, and +3 anything always seems to work.
