Converted Monster Experience - JustAGuy - 02-01-2004
I was wondering about converted monsters, via mind blast or conversion; do they garner you exp?
If a Paladin converts a monster, it's usually for a meat shield, but what happens when that monster kills another monster? Do I get the exp for it? What about thorns -- does the damage dealt from thorns count as your attack or the monster's attack, or neither?
If I convert a pile of gloams, and those gloams decimate whatever monsters I was facing -- did THEY get the exp, or will I get some as well? They get my auras, so we should share the experience gained...
The only thing I know for sure is that when a converted monster dies when converted, no one gets experience.

I don't think anyone gets any exp. from converted kills, but I may be wrong. I do know, however, that the supplier of thorns gets the thorns kill.

The following is from The Arreat Summit:

Thanks. Assuming that the Arreat Summit page is up-to-date and without error (you never know, they are sometimes wrong), I'll be converting monsters without any prejudice from now on.
