 As an artifact wish for a lawful character seeking magic resistance, the Crown provides all the same intrinsics as the Orb of Detection at {{frac|3}} of the weight, with the telepathy requiring the Crown to be worn as its only "drawback". Half spell damage combined with magic resistance also blunts the impact of the [[psi bolt]]sand [[curse items]] [[monster spell]]s, and gives the Crown the edge over the Magic Mirror. The Sceptre is still a worthy choice with its slotless and hungerless conflict, but only deals +5 damage against cross-aligned monsters, while the Stake is a fine weapon with its +12 damage bonus, but lacks any properties beyond magic resistance. The Mirror is probably most worth wishing for as a supplement to the Crown for characters that prefer a [[helm of brilliance]], plan to make use of the [[helm of opposite alignment]], or are frequently [[polymorph]]ed into a form that cannot wear helms.

-In SLASH'EM, the Crown is one of five lawful quest artifacts which provide magic resistance, the other four being [[the Orb of Detection]], [[The Magic Mirror of Merlin]] , [[the Sceptre of Might]], and [[the Stake of Van Helsing]].  A lawful player who wants to gain magic resistance from a quest artifact would certainly not wish for the Orb: the Crown provides all the same intrinsics at one third the weight (although to gain extrinsic telepathy, you must equip it in your helmet slot).  The Crown's chief benefit is that it provides half spell damage, which is useful for resisting the [[psi bolt]]s and [[curse items|item curses]] that the many new spellcasters in SLASH'EM will throw at you. The Mirror is the lightest (although not by much) and does provide slotless extrinsic telepathy, but this is definitely not as good as half spell damage.  The Sceptre is still a worthy choice with its slotless and hungerless conflict, but it has been downgraded from doing double damage against cross-aligned monsters to only doing an extra 5 damage against them.  The Stake is a fine weapon (it does a flat extra 12 damage against all monsters), but provides no extrinsics other than magic resistance.  One must thus choose which is most important: conflict (the Sceptre), a good weapon (the Stake), or half spell damage (the Crown). The Mirror would probably only be worth wishing for if you already had the Crown, just had to have extrinsic telepathy, and wanted to wear a [[helm of brilliance]] around (for spellcasting) or if you are making occasional use of a [[helm of opposite alignment]] or [[polymorph]]ed into a form that cannot wear helms (the Crown will blast you every time you put it on).

-As is true for other roles whose quest artifacts provide magic resistance, yeomen will not want to rely on the Crown as their only source of magic resistance.  Losing your only source of magic resistance to a (now magic resistant) [[Wizard of Yendor]] can be a game-ending mistake.  Most yeomen will probably want to wear the Crown, however, since the extrinsic telepathy is useful and yeomen are unlikely to be spellcasters.
