	Does it work for Monsters too ? I can't find something in mcastu.c but maybe it's handled somthere else. From playing experience, a can say that Rodney killed my knight who had around 60hp left with a psi bolt (it was definitly not touch of death, because the logfile says killed by the wizard of yendor and not touch of death). Assuming Rodney had a level of around 30, he should do around 25 average damage with his psi bolt and a (highly improbable) maximum damage of around 50. According to the logfile I died with -7 hitpoints, so it seems he did more than 67 damage and the magic mirror of merlin worked for him. -- [[Special:Contributions/79.210.90.91\|79.210.90.91]] 18:10, 25 October 2013 (UTC)		Does it work for Monsters too ?

	: Odd. {{function\|dothrow.c\|breaktest}} gives it a 99% chance of not breaking immediately before...making it not break. Looks like an artifact will never break according to breaktest, so throwing it/wielding it and hitting monsters/kicking it shouldn't break it. -- [[User:Marcmagus\|Marcmagus]] 00:10, 26 November 2008 (UTC)		: Odd. {{function\|dothrow.c\|breaktest}} gives it a 99% chance of not breaking immediately before...making it not break.
