Breaking
Is there a possibility of weapons breaking? I know that if you force the lock of a chest or box with edged weapons, they can break. But recently, when I killed a dwarf I got the message 'The dwarf's broad short sword shatters from the force of your blow!' How is this possible? (If it makes a difference, that was the killing blow.) --206.75.108.8 01:49, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Curved hook?
I recently found a curved hook. Didn't know what to do with it. Don't see it mentioned on wikihack. Was playing on alt.org/nethack/soiled. Is this someones code alteration or has wikihack neglected mention, or what? --Slarty 18:48, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
todos
- monster use of weapons (currently on the pet page) and ranged weapons
- weapon choice for the player
- how to find out enchantment (formal ID, price)
- weapons to avoid because their skill is a dead end
- link to multishot, artifact weapon, twoweapon etc.

Small vs. Large monster chart
Currently this chart just shows the raw count (including uniques, such as quest nemeses, which really shouldn't be there); would anyone with more scripting skills than I be able to make a chart weighted by monster frequency? That would give a reasonably accurate impression of the relative frequency of the various sizes - it still wouldn't account for things such as barracks or graveyards, but it'd be more informative than the current chart I'd think. -Ion frigate 06:30, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
