This would be a good place for a discussion of the difference between "percentile" magic resistance (which applies only to monsters and protects against charm monster, polymorph wands, cancellation etc. and usually isn't 100%) and "absolute" magic resistance (which is an extrinsic that protects from magic missile, wands of death, polymorph traps, etc. and is all or nothing). --68.110.235.31 21:04, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

archons and sceptre
Somebody claims "pets do not wield quest artifacts, so Archons cannot be made magic resistant" with the sceptre of might. I see nothing in the code that special-cases quest artifacts. (Except metallivores eating your own quest artifact.) --Tjr 18:24, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
