Is it possible to wield a spellbook as a weapon then read a scroll of Enchant weapon while confused to make the spellbook fireproof?
I tried to figure this out myself in Wizard mode but then discovered the GUI I was using made it nigh impossible to enter Wizard mode (side question how do I enter wizard mode in Vulture's Eye?)
- No, that only works for weapons and armor. From read.c#line961, the check for erodeproofing is:
if(uwep && (uwep->oclass == WEAPON_CLASS || is_weptool(uwep)) && confused) {
- So only weapons and weapon-tools (pick-axes mainly) will be made fooproof. It may be possible to wish for a "fireproof" spellbook in wizard mode, but I actually doubt that would protect it against anything. Erosion protection protects against just that - erosion. Destruction of spellbooks is handled elsewhere, and it doesn't take erosion protection into account.
- As a sidenote, one spellbook is naturally "fireproof" - the spellbook of fireball, though if the book gets blanked it's just as vulnerable to destruction as any other. And of course, the Book of the Dead can't be destroyed. -Ion frigate 14:03, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
