'''Shock Brand''' is an [[artifact]] that appears in [[SlashTHEM]]. It is [[unaligned]], and its [[base item]] type is a [[long sword]].<br />
<br />
Shock Brand is the [[shock]]-attuned counterpart of [[Frost Brand]] and [[Fire Brand]], and has an [[acid]]-attuned counterpart in [[Acid Brand]].<br />
<br />
==Generation==<br />
A long sword randomly generated on the ground (including in a [[shop]]) or as a [[death drop]] has a base {{frac|20}} chance of being made into an artifact, which has a {{frac|12}} chance of being made into Shock Brand, assuming no artifact long swords have been generated. Shock Brand can be given to any [[hero]] as a [[sacrifice gift]], though it will never be the first one given.<br />
<br />
Shock Brand is one of the artifacts that can be created by [[Duri]] at [[The Forge]], with a base price of 7250 (which is the second-highest of the [[Brand]]s).<br />
<br />
==Description==<br />
While [[wielded]], Shock Brand grants [[shock resistance]], and has a +1d5 [[to-hit]] bonus and deals [[double damage]] against monsters without shock resistance.<br />
