Best/Worst Artifacts

[dassem]

I thought this was a good find for level 5:

  Code:

I - the +4 mottled dragon armour "Qodoi" (worn) {rPois rF++ Stlth--}

Of course, I quickly got overconfident and smote to death by a pair of orc priests hiding behind a warrior.
In the depressing funk that followed, my luck returns to usual:

  Code:

 P - the cursed -3 pair of boots of a sewer (worn) {+Rage rElec Stlth++}

Not really from a sewer, but appropriately named, at least.
Now, back to Vehument deciding that Tornado was the perfect L9 gift for my fire/earth based DS wizard, since I didn't want Throw Frost earlier... Although that might have been a hint from the RNG, as it looks like my last mutation will be icemail that melts every time I cast any of the fire-based spells I've managed to find.

[Roshnak]

the +1 steam dragon armour of Appug (worn) {rF++ rC++, god gift} - carried me all the way through a 15 runer. Almost felt bad leaving Okawaru after he gave me such a glorious artifact.

the ring of Order {cTele Str+3 Dam+6 Curse}

the ring of Shonkaar (left hand) {SustAb rC+ MR SInv} - four rings in one!

the ring "Xosaph" {Str+4 Dex+4 Int+4} - ring of augmentation

Courtesy of Trog - the +2,+9 great sword "Xauleuda" (weapon) {god gift, slice, rF++ rC+ Int+3}

I'm ALWAYS smitten by orc priests....they have such adorable bald heads.....

[dassem]

Well, I do seem to be surprisingly illiterate at the moment - I think it's lack of sleep.
My first go at typing that had "fugue" instead of "funk" too, which almost works.

Presumably then, it's a good thing the Orc Warrior didn't have a crossbow, else he might have shitten me.

[Roshnak]

the ring "Vokurph" (Wiz rPois rF+ rC++ rN+ Dam+6 SInv)

I'm dead for sure.

[cerebovssquire]

pics or it didn't happen

[Abominae]

the +3 Shield of the Evening {rElec rPois rF++ MR}

[Roshnak]

It happened.

[Confidence Interval]

It happened.

You are very handy with Photoshop.

A string of bad decisions in zot:5 led to my demise. Proof for the ring though.

[dassem]

Ok, this I like a lot:

  Code:

 a - [D:18] the cursed +3 robe of Folly {Archmagi, MR- Int+5 Curse}

I guess that's an unrandart? But I think it's new.
I want to wear it, but the name has definitely worried me. If the MR- does lead to YASD, I'll post that...

Edit: Ok, it is the robe of folly. It's been changed! I love it! I think I'll wear it when I get time to resume...

That'd be pretty good for a Mage, as they don't have enough strength to carry all their spell books.

[Sandman25]

Found +1 cloak of

  Code:

rF++, rC+, stealth--, Dam +3

in Zig
Spent much time thinking but decided to keep wearing +2 preservation cloak despite I had

  Code:

Cons, Dam+4

amulet also.
The problem is I already have rF+ and rC++ in lichform so I don't need the resistencies that much and since I use Ice Storm mostly and am uncannily stealthy, preservation cloak + amulet of clarity/rElec are more important because clarity is a must in lichform, I want to have my scrolls (22 identify for example), CBoE channeling and disc of storms attacks if I don't have time to use staff of channeling, not to mention it is funny to see new monsters arrive at Ice Storm location and still don't see me even being adjacent while I channel mana. For the same reason I threw away +4 cloak of Str+4, Dex+3 a long time ago. +2 AC is not worth destroyed scrolls.

[WildSam]

  Code:

b - the +5,+6 scimitar "Newtslayer" {venom, Dex+2 Int+4}

Kind of boring usual decent caster weapon?

  Code:

155447 | D:2      | HungrySpirit: giant newt blocks the path!
155447 | D:2      | HungrySpirit: kill it with fire
155447 | D:2      | WildJhon: Fire?
155447 | D:2      | WildJhon: NOPE
155447 | D:2      | WildJhon: I got artifact for this.
155448 | D:2      | WildJhon: THE NEWTSLAYER

If i remind correctly, it was last monster i met. Totally worth not throwing it away later.

[Tarp]

A real mixed bag today:
The excellent

  Code:

ring of Uzohinuni {rElec rC++ EV+3 Acc+4}

along with the

  Code:

amulet of Crutt {+Rage Str+4 Int+4}

Which were all excellent in carrying my MiFi of TSO to my first win. Yay!
But then (on a DEWz) I find the

  Code:

cursed -5 cloak of Gamo {MR}

Whoever this Gamo guy is, he's an asshole. Normally this wouldn't be outrageously bad, but it's trying to give me negative AC. Bloody hell!

[Grimm]

Gamo is one of the RNG's sock puppets.

[Roshnak]

Sif Muna does not have a high opinion of heavy armor wearers
but hey, +3 str!

[Sandman25]

  Code:

the +5 cloak of Immorality (worn) {rElec rF++ Str+2 Acc+2}

I have never seen a +5 cloak before.

[Confidence Interval]

  Code:

It's a mimic.

[Frelus]

The cursed -8 Scale Mail "Ghawomep" (Str +3 Dam +6 Curse)
Luckily I am firstly a Spriggan and secondly with Ashenzari.

[prozacelf]

This isn't that terrible, but I love that combination of attributes with the name:

  Code:

the ring of Egomania {Hunger Dex+2 Acc-3}
   (You found it on level 9 of the Dungeon)   
   
   [ring of hunger]
   It affects your dexterity (+2).
   It affects your accuracy (-3).

It thinks it's awesome!

[Annonith]

Just found this little beauty in Orc4

And yes, I'm playing as heavy armour fighter.
Watch me die.

[aegis]

I once found the +0 +4 Sabre of fragile Peace (slay Orc, and some other properties i don't remember)

[Mankeli]

Two pretty much universally useful rings:

  Code:

 r - the ring of Cicwitti (right hand) {+Inv +Fly rF+ rC+ MR} (You found it on level 6 of the Pits of Slime)

  Code:

 n - the ring of Divine Intervention (left hand) {rF++ rC+} (You found it on level 12 of a ziggurat)   

[Grimm]

  Code:

L - the +14 pearl dragon armour of the Leaf (worn) {+Blink rC+ rN+}

This is garbage and will almost certainly get you killed.

Hey, that's my line!

[Grimm]

You were too slow on the draw.

[Confidence Interval]

A day late and a dollar short...

[Bloax]

  Code:

e - the ring of Desertification {Hunger- +Blink rElec}        666 gold

the ring of the beast

[Confidence Interval]

No, merely the Price of the Beast.

[Grimm]

What if...what if, in the spirit of 69, "666" is a representation of a sex act?

[prozacelf]

Does that make "999" a representation of a sex act too?

[Confidence Interval]

Yes, just means you flipped the camera round.

[Tarp]

I'm pretty sure that just corresponds to three people tongue-wrestling, though.
Maybe.

[Confidence Interval]

I'm pretty sure that just corresponds to three people spooning

[Bacon Golem]

the +6 pearl dragon armour "Roqesh" (worn) {rN+ Dex+3 Acc+2}
(You found it on level 1 of the Lair of Beasts)


Found it as DEFE, good way to pump AC with minimal encumberance :^)

[Engwar]

the cursed -10 scale mail of Sunlight {Str-2 Dam+4}

[rebthor]

"I am Okawaru and I approve of this crap randart."

"I am Okawaru and this is my favorite cloak in this branch."

[rebthor]

Of course, I quickly got overconfident and smitten to death by a pair of orc priests hiding behind a warrior.

I'm ALWAYS smitten by orc priests....they have such adorable bald heads.....

For me it's those simply lovely green dresses.
