-While wearing the helm but does not [[auto-identify]] it, its effect may become obvious after a short while if you are not [[blind]], and you can confirm if a freshly-worn helm is telepathy by [[far look]]ing the next monster that becomes visible to you.

Long durations of intrinsic [[monster detection]] may interfere with this, though using far look on monsters will still make clear what methods they are being seen through.
