Description
While wielded, a shepherd's crook extends the distance a pet will follow the hero to other levels from by 1 square, and acts as a spellcasting focus that reduces the failure rates of enchantment spells.
Applying a shepherd's crook can be used to pound targets as with a polearm, pick up items on a target square or pull a monster closer to the hero.
