-[[EvilHack]]'s implementation of [[object materials]] uses modified code taken from [[Object materials (xNetHack)|xNetHack's implementation]]. As with [[xNetHack]], an object's material affects its weight, its cost in a shop, how much protection it can grant as armor, how damage it delivers as a weapon, and what types of damage and decay it is subject to (if any). Material hatred is retained and expanded on as well. In addition, various material types will further affect spellcasting failure percentage, as well as [[magic cancellation]] rating.

Material hatred is retained and expanded on as well. In addition, various material types will further affect spellcasting failure percentage, as well as [[magic cancellation]] rating.
 When making a [[wish]], the material type of a desired item can be chosen if the category of object allows for it, with the exception of [[artifact]]s and a few other items.

-As in GruntHack, all objects have a probability of generating with a given set of materials; this also limits what object materials can be applied to items the hero wishes for, since items can only generate with materials they are eligible for normally (e.g., an item like [[plate mail]] with exclusively hard materials usually cannot be made of dragonhide).
