'''Xiuhcoatl''' is an [[artifact]] that appears in [[dNetHack]], [[notdNetHack]] and [[notnotdNetHack]]. It is [[lawful]] and favors [[Archeologist/dNetHack|Archeologists]], and its [[base item]] type is a [[dragonhide]] [[bullwhip]] special-cased to appear as '''serpenthide'''—Xiuhcoatl also has an [[Atlatl (dNetHack)|atlatl]] form made of [[wood]].

==Generation==
Xiuhcoatl is the first guaranteed [[sacrifice gift]] for Archeologists, and lawful [[hero]]es may receive it as a sacrifice gift.

==Description==
Xiuhcoatl has improved damage dice over both of its base items, dealing 1d2+2d4 damage to all monsters.

While [[wielded]] in bullwhip form, Xiuhcoatl grants [[fire resistance]] and has +1d3 [[to-hit]] and +1d12 [[Fire (element)|fire damage]] bonuses against monsters without fire resistance. [[Invoking]] Xiuhcoatl in bullwhip form will switch it to atlatl form without setting a cooldown timer.

While wielded in atlatl form, Xiuhcoatl grants fire resistance and has +1d3 to-hit and +1d12 fire damage bonuses when firing [[javelin]]s at monsters without fire resistance—javelins fired from Xiuhcoatl additionally have a doubled strength bonus applied, and have no maximum range. Invoking Xiuhcoatl in atlatl form will switch it to bullwhip form without setting a timer, and can optionally be used to generate javelins for the atlatl, which applies a cooldown timer for the effect.
