Every few paces he would pause, so that I, burdened with a pack stuffed with arcane and heavy paraphernalia, could catch up with his wizardly strides. He, as usual, carried nothing, preferring, as he often said, to keep his hands free for quick conjuring and his mind free for the thoughts of a mage.

Isn't the joke that you always hit when engulfed?

+127 weapons don't hit due to overflow, unless you have a massive penalty like that. But they do hit engulfing stuff, yes.
