The first non-shit fda I've ever looted (and probably i've killed about a couple of dozen of enchantress by now). And it's for a VsBe who like to stab people! Extremely awesome :D

the cursed +10 morningstar of the Volcano {vamp, +Rage rElec rF+ Str+3 Stlth++}

As a follower of Ash I nearly went for it when it dropped off an Anubis guard on Tomb 1. Only the fact that I already retired my pain brands stopped me. (cant see vamp being stellar in extended)

  Code:
 f - the +1 faerie dragon armour (worn) {MR++ Int+2 Dex+3 Slay+6 Stlth+}
   (You took it off the Enchantress on level 2 of the Depths)   
   
   It affects your intelligence (+2).
   It affects your dexterity (+3).
   It affects your accuracy and damage with ranged weapons and melee attacks
   (+6).
   It affects your resistance to hostile enchantments.
   It makes you more stealthy.

Basically all good, just on the low enchant side - but Slay+6 and boosts to Stealth, Int and Dex on my spriggan stabber/spellcaster? I'll take it.

So... I used the first Scroll of Disappointment on my MiBe today... I only had a +1 plate on so I decided I'd take a gamble and be disappointed with crap armour...
  Code:

The scroll did not disappoint.

Actually, that got scaled back to +-7 as the max/min. MarvinPA was talking about scaling it back further to +-6, but it doesn't look like that's happened yet.

Also slightly crappy (though less so) in its own way, but paired up these matched well and also gives as much Str as I have naturally again.

Combined, its an awesome artifact, even as is I love that ring..

Hah, well if that's the case it was a brilliant choice. I know better than to acquire jewellery normally, but I had two of the major wands, a nice lajatang, fully enchanted ego aux armour, and I was trying to do Spider without rPois and figured, what the heck, maybe I'd net an rPois ring and make the fights and chunk minigame less irritating (or at least get Slaying or AC or something nice). Nope!

Ended up finding a staff of poison I could use to eat though lol.

Especially great since I had to use ring of fire when needed rF+. Enchantress and all her band died to 5 invocations of Slouch, feels almost like cheating.

Edit2.
  Code:
-2 pair of boots of the Engineer {rF+ MR+ Slay+4 Stlth+}

It was better than my +2 boots of stealth since the artefact allowed to replace ring of protection from magic with +5 ring of evasion.

Randart generation has changed quite a bit. Properties "stack" now. For example, I believe randarts will no longer roll an "rF++" property; if you see an item with rF++ it's because it rolled rF+ for two of its properties. It's the same with stats, if the "same" randart had generated in an older version you would have gotten several other properties instead. So it shouldn't really be a buff to randarts.

This isn't quite right; when it chooses certain type of properties (stats, non-boolean resists), it has a chance of going on to apply that property again, potentially repeatedly (so rF+++ can generate now). This costs multiple properties, as you described.

The rest is right.
