How about listing the value/score for the invocation artifacts too?

BTW, they are not artifacts. --Tjr

Showscore

I don't think the "showscore" option works. I can't get it to work. --MadDawg2552 02:17, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

You need to have compiled nethack with SCORE_ON_BOTL, too. Renx 14:33, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Minscore and wands

"Note that the wand of speed monster does not give points on formal identification, unlike other wands" - could I get a source-diver to grab me a reference for this please, and also report it to the dev team if it looks like a bug! Thanks Spontiff 08:49, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

As I read the code, regarding the score "bonus" for formal discovery:
  • zapping a directional(!) wand at yourself . Source:Ref/zapyourself never gives the bonus. Note attack wands do twice as much damage as your own bounces.
  • zapping your steed always does, unless no effect
  • zapping an IMMEDIATE-type directional wand while engulfed never does, but formally IDs striking, polymorph, make invisible, probing.
  • zapping an IMMEDIATE-type directional wand up or down does give the score if appropriate
  • zapping an IMMEDIATE-type directional wand in other directions never gives score
  • zapping a RAY-type directional wand in any direction except self gives the score points.
  • zapping or engraving with a nondirectional wand always gives the score if you see the effects, which is always the case if enlightenment or wishing. Handled by Source:Ref/zapnodir instead of Source:Ref/weffects
All this needs to be wizmode-tested. --Tjr 11:44, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Values in Tables

Some of the artifacts have had their price changed since the tables were made, notably Sting (2000 -> 800). Could these lists be auto-generated by the items' info pages somehow? AileTheAlien 04:01, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
