Best/Worst Artifacts


If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it belongs here. Also, come here if you just need to get hammered.

If you ever take that ring off your finger, you're playing Crawl wrong.

I actually never put the thing on. Found it in a Zig and already had pretty much every single resistance pip I could ever want (Zig scumming is fun guys!) and my other 2 rings gave me regeneration and sustain abilities (along with a bunch of str, dex and int) which I actually valued much more highly by then. Slaying bonuses were a bit meh too as I was running with a staff of fire/air for hitting things I needed to.

H - the +6,-4 quick blade "Xom's Capriciousness" (weapon) {god gift, stab, -CAST rElec rF+ Str+4}
(Okawaru gifted it to you on level 5 of the Elven Halls)

It's a coveted quickblade, and a randart at that, with useful resists. That renders you completely impotent magically and physically. It's apty named, for sure. You can almost hear Xom laughing.

You need the strength bonus and the vorpal brand to disguise the fact that it's the dungeon's fastest butter knife, with the deadliness of same.

And not really a artifact, the scroll "Jarjar binks", it was a scroll of fear.

Why, why must there be that -cast?? I've never found a cTele randart before, I have no rE and the MR would be helpful. Maybe I can swap it around but still, dammit! :(

My most spectacular (AC-wise) find tonight was:

a +15 plate mail +rF, +rN in Crypt 5

and a decent one, on the same character:

a +4 steam dragon armour {rElec, rC+} Vaults:8

There was also a ring in a shop that contained the word "fap" in its name but I didn't take a screenshot. Silly me. :P

I think that even a peasant would be able to do better than something that is worse than going naked.

On the other hand, from the same game...

B - the +10 plate armour of Life (worn) {rF+ rC+ Acc+5}

Who needs GDA and an extra -3 EVP, especially when you're a naga with rPois already?
