Svirfnebli warriors? Assassins? Who fears them as a lowbie? An anti-paladin eh? Blindness is key at the low ranks. Assassins can cure it with bindwounds but the warriors are screwed. Poison and chill touch could be enough to make them drop their weapon if they're not wearing a lot of strength gear, or just for the old fashioned blindness/disarm. Anti-paladins have three attacks, and the ability to use maces and axes, both of which tear up the assassin. Svirf warriors are no problem, get yellow roots and flying potions and they can't keep you in combat, so you're free to lightning bolt them to death. If the ap is human, he's in fantastic shape. If he's a fire giant, he has to worry about folks in their lower 20's, so a fire ap probably isn't the best lowbie pk'er.
