Two external sources are cited here mentioning exercise. One of them (http://www.helsinki.fi/~vviitane/spoilers/exercise) says the formula for stat point increases is 1-(stat)/20.

I [http://nethackwiki.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Exercise&oldid=87447 rewrote] the explanation of the calculcations in exercise checks. It was unclear, and incorrect as far as I could tell. The current version is based on the source of exerchk and [http://web.archive.org/web/20071109210037/http://www.geocities.com/dcorbett42/nethack/exercise.htm this page], which agree with each other and disagree with the previous contents of the page.

Revision as of 15:43, 23 October 2013

Two Questions:

1. Do you get benefits of exercise when wearing Gloves of Strength or Dexterity?

2. What happens if one loses strength due to poisoning, then exercises it until it gains a point, then applies a unicorn horn? To what level will it rise (if any)?

Two questions

1.) Does this look like Usenet?

2.) How about this? http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.roguelike.nethack/topics

Problem solved. :)

Source inconsistency

Two external sources are cited here mentioning exercise. One of them (http://www.helsinki.fi/~vviitane/spoilers/exercise) says the formula for stat point increases is 1-(stat)/20. The other (http://www.geocities.com/dcorbett42/nethack/exercise.htm says the formula is (18-(stat))/19. What gives? What is the actual formula?
