Equivalent scroll of remove curse
Special for priest

At unskilled or basic level this spell acts similar to an uncursed scroll of remove curse. At skilled or expert, like a blessed scroll. This spell can be helpful late in the game against Rodney, who likes to use the monster spell Curse items to curse your inventory.

This is an emergency spell. It is also the special spell for priests.

Strategy

Casting this spell at unskilled or basic level will uncurse only all worn and wielded items, but if your weapon isn't cursed you can also use it to uncurse any item within your inventory. Simply wield the cursed item - you have to specify the inventory letter directly or press * to get the full list of your inventory, rather than the recommended weapons - and then cast the spell. The wielded item will then be uncursed. Be careful that you don't wield any cursed two-handed weapons! NetHack will not let you cast spells when you have no free hands.
