| − | '''Chromatic dragon scale mail''' is one of two new [[DSM|dragon scale mails]] added in [[UnNetHack]]. The scales are [[Death drop|dropped]] by generic [[Chromatic dragon (UnNetHack)|chromatic dragons]]. [[Tiamat]] (the Caveman quest nemesis, and a unique chromatic dragon) also drops chromatic dragon scales.

| − | Chromatic dragon scale armor confers the extrinsic resistances of almost all dragon scale armors: [[fire resistance|fire]], [[cold resistance|cold]], [[sleep resistance|sleep]], [[disintegration resistance|disintegration]], [[shock resistance|shock]], [[poison resistance|poison]], [[acid resistance|acid]], [[petrification|stone]], and even the [[reflection]] conferred by [[silver dragon scale mail]].

| − | | + | {{disambig}} |
| − | In spite of this limitation, chromatic dragon scale armor is a valuable find, even for a player who has already acquired all intrinsic resistances. It provides reflection and two resistances that cannot be obtained intrinsically, petrification and acid. Having these extrinsics supplied by a single piece of equipment frees up other slots, such as the off-hand ([[shield of reflection]]), neck ([[amulet of reflection]]), and cloak ([[alchemy smock]]), for other items.

| − | Balancing chromatic dragon scale's utility is its scarcity. Neither the scales nor the armor can be wished for, so they can only be obtained from chromatic dragons, which are only generated in the new [[Dragon Caves]] branch off [[Gehennom]]. Even then those dragons are not guaranteed to leave scales, so no player is guaranteed to get this armor in any game.

| − | | |
| − | Before commit r1580 it was possible to bypass the prohibition on wishing for chromatic dragon scale armor by wishing for one or more chromatic dragon [[egg]]s, which would hatch into full-grown chromatic dragons. Since this version, however, chromatic dragon eggs have also been made non-wishable. Wishing for a statue (or figurine) of a chromatic dragon, however, is allowed. (Note, as of 5.2.0, these items are also non-wishable)

| − | [[dNetHack]] adds "[[dNetHack artifacts#Chromatic Dragon Scales|Chromatic Dragon Scales]]" as an unaligned [[artifact]] armor, with base item [[black dragon scales]]. It grants resistance to fire, cold, shock, disintegration, poison, drain, sickness, acid and stoning. It does not give reflection ''or'' magic resistance. It is also 50% heavier than standard scales, 225 vs 150. It can be made into a shield or mail as usual. It doesn't give the [[User:Chris/dNethack/dNethack_Items#Dragon_Armors|extra bonuses associated with DSM in dNetHack]].
