Death is Nature's way of increasing your DX.

Take a typical exp. character of ST 14, DX 14, IQ 14 with 16k XP (halfway to the next attribute point) saved up who is found 12 hours after dying in his sleep from the frustration of advancing his abilities.

The party wizard waves her tiny little goblin staff at him and he's asleep at ST 9(0), DX 14, IQ 14. Nine healing potions bring him to ST 9, DX 14, IQ 14. He then applies 15k XP to advance to ST 9, DX 16, IQ 16 and five wishes to get to ST 14, DX 16, IQ 16.

Thanks to dying he advanced by four attribute points he couldn't afford before.

4 of which were by wishes he didn't have before either, so only 1 that he was halfway to gaining anyway.
make a wish for 16k XP.
