Materials
| Material | Erosion | Hinders spellcasting? |
|---|---|---|
| bronze | corroded | yes |
| cloth | burnt, rotten | no |
| dragon hide | - | no |
| glass | - | no |
| iron | rusty, corroded | yes |
| leather | burnt, rotten | no |
| mithril | - | yes |
| silver | - | yes |
| wood | burnt, rotten | no |
Effects
| Acd | Gives acid resistance. |
| Align | Changes your alignment, removes protection, and auto-curses. |
| Clair | A Wizard gets clairvoyance and +1 charisma, others block clairvoyance and get -1 charisma. |
| Dex | Adds armor's enchantment to your dexterity. |
| Displ | Gives displacement. |
| ESP | Gives telepathy. |
| Fumble | You will occasionally fumble. |
| Int+Wis | Adds armor's enchantment to your intelligence and wisdom. |
| Invis | Gives invisibility. |
| Jump | Gives jumping at will. The special restrictions for Knights do not
apply while this item is worn. |
| Kick | Kicking does additional damage, and grants martial arts bonuses. |
| Lev | Causes levitation. Does NOT prevent you being drowned by monsters. |
| Magic | Gives magic resistance. Does NOT affect magic cancellation. |
| Poison | Gives poison resistance. |
| Prot | An armor with good AC adjustment and magic cancellation. The protection intrinsic it confers doesn't have any effect beyond this. |
| Reflect | Gives reflection. |
| Resist% | Provides resistance according to the color of the dragon:
|
| Shop | If not covered by body armor or cloak, shopkeepers buy and sell at the same rate as inexperienced (level < 15) tourists (buy at 1/3 of and sell at 4/3 of the normal price). |
| Sleep | Gives sleep resistance. |
| Speed | Gives you the speed extrinsic, the same as a potion of speed or spell of haste self. |
| Spell | Spellcasting is more likely to succeed, and reduces the penalty for metallic armour. |
| Stlth | Gives stealth. |
| Str | Increases your strength to 25. |
| Stupid | Your intelligence and wisdom are fixed at 6; auto-curses; shopkeepers buy and sell at the inexperienced Tourist rate. |
| Vis | Overrides invisibility so you are again visible. |
| Water | Protects metal body armor from rusting/corroding (1/3 chance of protection if cursed) and prevents grabbing attacks. |
| WWalk | Allows you to walk on water. Does NOT prevent you being drowned by monsters. |
Strategy
Excepting elven armor and a wizard's cornuthaum, armor may only be safely enchanted up to +5 provided that you start from +3 and use a blessed scroll. Elven equipment and cornuthaums may be safely enchanted to +7 provided that you start from +5. Thus, by using armor alone, the maximum protection is -45, or 55 points of protection. In practice, it is often somewhat below this, as characters give up a better AC for other protections and advantages. For example, a +5 shield of reflection will give 7 AC and reflection, but SDSM will give 14 and reflection, and allow two-weaponing. Likewise, high boots and iron shoes will give 2 AC, but speed boots will give 1 and "very fast" speed.
The typical combination of armor in an ascension kit is
- Helm of telepathy/brilliance or elven leather helm.
- Cloak of magic resistance or displacement; oilskin cloak in sack. CoD is used if and only if you already have magic resistance from some other source.
- Either gray or silver dragon scale mail.
- Either shirt; no great difference.
- Shield of reflection, possibly, if you don't wish to two-weapon.
- Gauntlets of power for combat; gauntlets of dexterity for spellcaster.
- Speed boots or jumping boots; water walking boots in a bag.
