5. will i get a special message for gaining petrification resistance after eating a gorgon corpse?
I think you always get the resistance... but eating the corpse is not a good idea unless you already have it.

Your loot is based on the danger level of the area. Unless you are a level 32+ thief, the loot will be a random item with weight of 10s or less. Level 32 thieves preferentially acquire rare and valuable items.

Most artifacts have special names or weights even when unidentified. A few do not.

No idea. Wand damage/effectiveness seems to depend on bless/curse status as well as the PC's willpower and mana scores.
3.when should i keep drinking from pools? with 1 char i lost teleport control and gained teleportites . 1 of my current chars has afaik fire,cold and parallys intrinsic. although petrification could instakill me, gorgons seem pretty rare.(got all pools in darkforge still)
It is usually a good idea to have a means to deal with dooming and teleportitis without control (ie. a spare blink dog corpse or appropriate ring/amulet). Many players prefer to wait until after the Arena is completed in case they get intrinsic invisibility. Honestly, in the very early game, it's not a terrible idea to gamble on a pool, esp. if you have poison resist so the inevitable snakes won't kill you. Getting a few good intrinsics or a wish can be a great boon, and if you die, well, you haven't invested much time into the PC.
Normally, if I'm sipping pools and not looking for a wish, I'm usually hoping for either intrinsic invisibility or paralysis resist, or maybe an early fate smiles. Most of the other intrinsics are easy enough to acquire through safer means, or aren't important enough to care about.
