: Odd.  {{function|dothrow.c|breaktest}} gives it a 99% chance of not breaking immediately before...making it not break. Looks like an artifact will never break according to breaktest, so throwing it/wielding it and hitting monsters/kicking it shouldn't break it. -- [[User:Marcmagus|Marcmagus]] 00:10, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
