Gauntlets of fumbling are a pair of magical gloves that appear in NetHack. They are made of leather, and have a randomized appearance when unidentified.
Generation
Gauntlets of fumbling have a 9⁄10 chance of generating cursed with a non-positive enchantment.[1]
Player monsters, including those on the Astral Plane, have a 7⁄8 chance of generating with a random pair of gloves and a 1⁄5 chance of those gloves being gauntlets of fumbling, for an effective 7⁄40 chance (~17.5%).[2]
Description
While worn, gauntlets of power grant 1 base AC and confer extrinsic fumbling, causing the character wearing them to trip over items and make noise among other effects - wearing them also confers a -3 to-hit penalty while firing from bows.[3]
Strategy
Gauntlets of fumbling are one of multiple reasons why randomly wear-testing items to identify them is a bad idea. Cursed gauntlets of fumbling are considered a minor trouble by your character's god.[4]
