== List of artifacts ==
+
The following is a list of '''[[SLASH'EM]] [[artifact]]s''', including those present in vanilla ''[[Nethack]]''.
:''See [[Source:SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2/artilist.h]] or the article for each artifact for more details.''  <ref>Borrowed heavily from http://www.angelfire.com/trek/mazewest/spoilers/arti_007e6.txt</ref>

+
==General artifact changes==
 +
Many general behaviors of artifacts in ''NetHack'' have been changed for SLASH'EM:
 +
 
 +
* Artifacts in vanilla that inflict a random amount of extra damage ([[Excalibur]] for example) in SLASH'EM always inflict the maximum; the same is applied to to-hit bonuses as well. This makes them much more useful in general.
 +
* Artifacts which do their damage against a particular type of monster ([[Sting]] for example) also have a 15% chance of [[cancellation|cancelling]] said monsters.
 +
* It is possible for roles to have more than one guaranteed artifact gift - these will always be given in the same order.
 +
* It is possible to [[twoweapon]] two artifact weapons, which cannot be done in vanilla ''NetHack''.
 +
 
 +
Some of the individual artifacts have been changed as well. For example, [[the Sceptre of Might]] now only inflicts +5 bonus damage on cross-aligned monsters, instead of double damage.

Revision as of 17:30, 10 March 2024

The following is a list of SLASH'EM artifacts, including those present in vanilla Nethack.

General artifact changes

Many general behaviors of artifacts in NetHack have been changed for SLASH'EM:

  • Artifacts in vanilla that inflict a random amount of extra damage (Excalibur for example) in SLASH'EM always inflict the maximum; the same is applied to to-hit bonuses as well. This makes them much more useful in general.
  • Artifacts which do their damage against a particular type of monster (Sting for example) also have a 15% chance of cancelling said monsters.
  • It is possible for roles to have more than one guaranteed artifact gift - these will always be given in the same order.
  • It is possible to twoweapon two artifact weapons, which cannot be done in vanilla NetHack.

Some of the individual artifacts have been changed as well. For example, the Sceptre of Might now only inflicts +5 bonus damage on cross-aligned monsters, instead of double damage.
