{{tocright}}
'''UnNetHack''' is a [[variant]] of ''[[NetHack]]'' initially based off [[NetHack 3.4.3]], and is maintained by [[User:Bhaak|Patric Mueller]] and others. Most of the data structures are incorporated from the [[NetHack 3.6]] series, with various additions derived from the currently-in-development [[NetHack 3.7]] and more to come in the future, though many elements of NetHack 3.4.3 currently remain, such as Elbereth and the [[speed]] system.

The main intent of this fork is to put more randomness, challenges, and fun into NetHack. It features more levels, several UI improvements designed to reduce tedium, and many gameplay-related changes.<ref>http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.roguelike.nethack/msg/5ee5599d1e6b7378</ref> Since version 3.6.1, it also bundles a [[Tileset|graphical tiles UI]] for Windows with DawnHack tiles.

For discussion, join the IRC channel [irc://irc.libera.chat/unnethack #unnethack] on [[Libera|irc.libera.chat]] or post to [[rec.games.roguelike.nethack]].

The latest development source code is available from the [https://github.com/UnNetHack/UnNetHack GitHub repository] - the current version is UnNetHack 6.0.13. UnNetHack can also be played online on [[public servers]], with their current version listed in parentheses:

* [[Hardfought]] (6.0.13)
* guis.es (6.0.8) 

Below is a somewhat generalized list of changes that UnNetHack makes from base NetHack 3.4.3&mdash;the [https://github.com/UnNetHack/UnNetHack/blob/master/ChangeLog change log] can be viewed on GitHub, which also has a [https://github.com/UnNetHack/UnNetHack/commits/master commit browser] for a complete list of changes. The [http://unnethack.wordpress.com/ development blog] for UnNetHack can be viewed on WordPress.

==Bug fixes and general code==
* [[Dumplog]]s are added.
* The [[astral call bug]] is fixed.

==The hero==
* The hero can no longer suffer [[instant death]] from [[poison]], instead having a chance of being subjected to “very toxic poison” that does much more health and attribute damage.
* The hero no longer has a role-based [[spellcasting]] bonus for special spells.

==Race changes==
* The [[Vampire (starting race in UnNetHack)|vampire race]] is added and modified from SLASH'EM. Vampire heroes get a +1 [[charisma]] bonus while wearing an [[opera cloak]].
* [[Elf (starting race)|Elven]] heroes do not regenerate health while there is [[iron]] touching their bare skin, unless the object is their quest artifact. Vampire heroes similarly cannot regenerate while [[silver]] touches their bare skin.

==Role changes==
* [[Archeologist]]s get a luck bonus while wearing a [[fedora]], and can [[Scroll of enchant armor|enchant]] them safely to +7.
* The [[Convict]] role is added&mdash;their first [[sacrifice gift]] is [[Luck Blade (UnNetHack)|Luck Blade]], and they can reach Basic skill in [[broadsword]]s.
* [[Healer]]s looking at monsters can see roughly how much damage they have taken, and are notified of changes in a monster's condition when they take damage.
* [[Knight]]s get a weight reduction for any worn body armor heavier than [[studded leather armor]].
* [[Monk]]s get a 1-point [[AC]] bonus while [[confused]], as a reference to drunken boxing
* [[Tourist]]s start with additional [[dart]]s to compensate for the increased training required to enhance skills in UnNetHack, and when they enter a shop, all of its items are automatically identified.

==Skills==
{{main|Skill (UnNetHack)}}
[[Skill]]s take significantly longer to train, with an increase of ~2.5-5x for weapon skills and ~1.25x for all others. The [[enhance]] menu displays the maximum level of each skill that a hero can attain.

When the hero attacks with a weapon that they lack skill in, they will “begin awkwardly bashing” monsters with it.

When [[riding]], the duration of any [[gallop]]ing duration is dependent on the hero's skill level in riding.

==Commands==
* The #[[adjust]] command can be used to separate a stack of items into multiple stacks by typing a number before an inventory letter.
* The [[autoexplore]] command from [[AceHack]] is implemented (bound to {{kbd|v}} by default), and makes the hero automatically explore the dungeon until they find something interesting or are interrupted.
* The #[[tip]] command from later versions of ''NetHack'' can be used to empty a container of its contents without trying to open it.

==Conducts==
The following [[conduct]]s can be set in the [[configuration file]]:

* Marathon (Start with 999 HP, but you can’t heal)
* [[Permanent hallucination]]
* No [[death drop]]s
* Elberethless (never engrave or use [[Elbereth]])
* [[Racial equipment]] only (wear only armor and wield weapons that match your race)
* Heaven or Hell (the player and all monsters have 1 HP, and the player has 3 intrinsic extra lives)

Other conducts are also tracked by the game:
* Clearing Sokoban without cheating
{{todo|There’s an extra conduct called Ascet (for Ascetism), but its rules are currently not understood.}}

==Options==
* [[Menucolors]]
* [[Statuscolors]]
* <tt>invweight</tt> and <tt>showweight</tt>, which show the weight of the hero’s inventory and their carrying capacity as well as the weight of individual items in the inventory and on the ground&mdash;both originally come from SLASH’EM.
* <tt>MONSTERCOLOR</tt> which allows the player to change the color of specific monster glyphs (e.g. <tt>MONSTERCOLOR=water nymph:cyan</tt>
* <tt>[[MSGTYPE]]</tt>, which changes how certain messages are displayed, from NetHack 3.6.0.
* <tt>paranoid_trap</tt>, which asks for confirmation before the hero walks on a known trap.
* A tutorial is present that the player can access when starting a new run.

==Elbereth==
[[Elbereth]] is iterated upon from its baseline functions in NetHack 3.4.3: the word does not need to be the only text in an [[engraving]] and protects any squares it is engraved on even while the hero is not present, functions in Gehennom and the [[Elemental Planes]], and attacking while standing on it does not erase the engraving or incur an [[alignment record]] penalty (although it can smudge non-permanent engravings as normal).

Elbereth can be automatically engraved using {{kbd|ctrl|E}}, and engraving or using Elbereth is a tracked conduct&mdash;the player is also notified in the status window if the hero is standing on an Elbereth square.

[[Unique]] [[M2_DEMON|demons]] and all quest nemeses do not respect Elbereth, and [[minotaur]]s ''do'' respect Elbereth unlike in ''NetHack''.

==Dungeon changes==
New and existing dungeon branches and special rooms are given their own colored walls, adapted from EvilHack: the Gnomish Mines are brown, Sokoban is teal, Gehennom is red, and so on. [[Bones]] levels are shown in the dungeon overview, all levels except Moloch’s Sanctum and the [[Astral Plane]] are [[mappable]], and [[digging]] [[ray]]s are not restricted to one square on maze levels.

For detailed changes in UnNetHack's dungeon branches, see the [[Mazes of Menace#Map 2|UnNethack dungeon map]].

===New rooms===
In addition to [[Special room (UnNetHack)|new special rooms]], wallified corridors, and various other changes, the dungeon now contains [[Random vault (UnNetHack)|random vaults]] that add significant variety to what the dungeon can look like.

There are three new [[shop]] types: the instrument shop, pet store and tin shop.

===Dungeon features===
* Secret [[door]]s no longer appear randomly.
* [[Potion]] effects that occur from [[quaff]]ing at a [[sink]] can be of any [[beatitude]] depending on the hero's luck, and there is a {{frac|13}} chance of the potion being a [[Potion of vampire blood (UnNetHack)|potion of vampire blood]].
* [[Dungeon Growths]]: Trees rarely drop fruits or spawn more trees nearby over time. As of version 6.0.0, levels that have trees on them have an independent chance of generating an [[axe]] (for chopping down the growing trees).
* [[Stairs]] that lead to different dungeon branches are colored yellow.
* Magical [[trap]]s that are not magic portals or [[anti-magic field]]s can be disarmed and removed with a [[wand of cancellation]].
* Muddy swamp squares are added which can wet items like moats and pools, but can be walked through without [[flying]], [[levitation]] or [[water walking]].
* The [[vibrating square]] is treated as a trap, making it much easier to find, and will print messages about faint tremblings when the hero is within two squares of it. Once found, the vibrating square remains permanently revealed.

===New branches and levels===
* The [[Town]]: A collection of shops accompanied by a town [[watch]] and several [[mugger]]s who will attempt to steal your items. As of version 5.1.0, the Town only has one filler level, which is an open level with rivers separating the downstairs and upstairs.
* The [[Nymph level (UnNetHack)|nymph level]]: A level featuring several nymph monsters and a unique nymph known as [[Aphrodite (UnNetHack)|Aphrodite]].
* The [[Ruins of Moria]]: A special set of 6 upward-extending levels, each with their own unique loot and challenges, modeled after the Mines of Moria from [[J. R. R. Tolkien]]'s ''[[wikipedia:The Lord of the Rings|The Lord of the Rings]]'' trilogy
* The [[Black market (UnNetHack)|Black market]] is a unique, level-spanning shop with high price markups. As of version 5.1.0, there is also a second map that instead has numerous different shops spread across the level, with One-eyed Sam as a peaceful overseer.
* [[Sheol]] is an ice-themed branch in Gehennom with unique ice-themed levels and monsters, as well as a [[magic marker]] and two [[crystal pick]]s at the end of the branch.
* The [[Dragon Caves]]: Dragon-filled caverns in Gehennom that contain the [[Chromatic dragon (UnNetHack)|chromatic dragons]], whose [[Chromatic dragon scales (UnNetHack)|scales]] can give the resistances of all dragon scale types. As a related change, the [[Chromatic Dragon]] is renamed to Tiamat to distinguish her from these dragons, and she always drops chromatic dragon scales when killed for the first time.

===Existing branches and levels===
* Lots of new maps for the [[Big Room]] are added.
* [[Sokoban (UnNetHack)|Sokoban]] has several new maps added from other variants, and undergoes several other changes:
** The branch consists of three levels instead of four, with a {{frac|2}} chance of generating only one [[scroll of earth]] on the first level instead of two.
** Sokoban’s difficulty level is fixed to Sokoban’s entry level, and does not change on higher levels.
** Cheating in Sokoban gives feedback the first time the rules are broken, and clearing Sokoban without cheating is a tracked conduct in-game&mdash;doing so successfully gives the hero +1 luck. Additionally, Sokoban levels have their restrictions lifted once the entire branch is solved, somewhat similar to later versions of ''NetHack''.
** The player can choose from one of three prizes at the end of Sokoban: an [[amulet of reflection]], [[cloak of magic resistance]] or [[bag of holding]]. The prizes will always be non-cursed and have a minimum [[enchantment]] of +0, and selecting one prize will destroy the others - they are always exempt from [[autopickup]] in order to prevent the option picking up an unwanted prize.
* The [[magic portal]] to [[Fort Ludios]] will generate in the first eligible [[vault]] encountered below level 10, and will generate at [[Medusa's Island]] if it has not yet generated elsewhere (ensuring it can be accessed if there are no eligible vaults). The branch also has [[Fort Ludios#UnNetHack|two additional maps]].
* The [[Rogue level]] will not appear.
* The [[Quest]] has several changes as well:
** The [[experience level]] threshold needed to enter the down [[stair]] on the home level is lowered to XL 10, and killing the [[quest leader]] also unlocks access to the levels below.
** Quest leaders can destroy boulders while angry.
* The filler levels between [[Medusa's Island]] and the [[Castle]] in the Dungeons of Doom are changed cavern levels with moats surrounding the level and muddy swamps scattered throughout.
* The [[Castle (UnNetHack)|Castle]] has two new maps that can appear.
* [[Gehennom]] in UnNetHack is significantly changed:
** The [[Valley of the Dead]] has an extra possible map, and portals to Sheol, [[Vlad’s Tower]], and the Dragon Caves are guaranteed to be generated.
** Many Gehennom filler levels are cavern levels with [[lava]] surrounding them that often spread through rivers into the level. The [[Heck² patch]] also adds several potential maps to the filler level pool.
** The lairs of [[Baalzebub's Lair|Baalzebub]], [[Asmodeus' Lair (UnNetHack)|Asmodeus]] and [[Orcus-town|Orcus]] each have an additional map.
*** Orcus-Town will always have an untended lighting shop.
** Vlad’s Tower still contains a stair that leads into Gehennom in addition to the portal from the Valley. The top floor contains [[large box]]es that are flavored as 'coffins' and create [[Vampire (monster class)|vampires]] when opened.<!--* The [[Wizard’s Tower]] is a separate dungeon branch, and the stairs up to the tower will always be on the same level as the vibrating square.-->
* [[Moloch's Sanctum]] has been changed significantly, featuring a modified map with two sections separated by an expanse of [[lava]] and a pair of [[drawbridge]]s. Inside the inner Sanctum, the initially peaceful [[high priest]] of Moloch is accompanied by [[Cthulhu]], who carries the [[Amulet of Yendor]] and reappears a few turns after being killed. The Amulet has a chance of teleporting whenever it is dropped, so after killing Cthulhu for the first time the hero must locate the Amulet within the level&mdash;this may require continuing to fend off Cthulhu unless the hero can find a way to get rid of him permanently.
* The [[Elemental Planes]] are generated in a random order, and each plane will have extra [[trap]]s as well as a scroll related to their element (i.e. {{? of|fire|flood|earth|or=1|stinking cloud}}) somewhere on the level.

==Monsters==
Many new monsters are added to UnNetHack, with some originating from other [[variant]]s.

{{todo|Add dungeon ferns.}}

Some monsters added to the variant were removed in later versions, which may be found in other variants such as the offshoot [[DynaHack]]:

* [[Shambling horror (UnNetHack)|shambling horror]]
* [[Rodent of unusual size (DynaHack)|rodent of unusual size]]
* [[Antimatter vortex (EvilHack)|antimatter vortex]]

===Monster changes===
Several existing monsters and related mechanics have been changed or revamped as well, including changes from other variants or later versions of ''NetHack''.

* Monster spawn rates increase as the turn count increases (adapted from SporkHack).
* Intelligent monsters can pick up and use [[unlocking tool]]s.
* Certain monster types will [[grudge]] and attack others of their own accord.
* Revived [[unicorn]]s and [[dragon]]s never drop [[unicorn horn]]s or [[dragon scale]]s.
* Covetous monsters such as [[quest nemeses]] can steal ''any'' [[artifact]] in the hero's inventory.
* Monster [[corpse]]s that are drained by a vampire hero may fail to revive when subjected to a [[wand of undead turning]] or the {{+ of|turn undead}} spell, destroying the corpse instead&mdash;this chance becomes higher the more thoroughly they were drained.
* Specific monsters:
** [[Amnesia]] from the attacks of [[mind flayer]]s and [[master mind flayer]]s no longer cause the hero to forget level layouts or object identities.
** [[Aleax]]es instead generate with copies of whatever armor and weapons the hero has equipped at the time of their generation&mdash;all items generated this way are +0, uncursed and [[erosion]]-proofed, with artifacts converted to their [[base item]]s. A hostile [[minion]] sent by an [[angry]] [[god]] will always be an Aleax.
** [[Dragon (UnNetHack)|Dragons]] have been substantially modified and randomized to have a different name, element and associated [[breath weapon]] in each game. They can also eat hard [[gem]]s.
** [[Gnome (monster class)|Gnomes]] can be generated a candle, with a higher chance in the [[Gnomish Mines]]&mdaash;candles given to Gnomes in dark Mines levels are very likely to be lit. The former change comes from AceHack.
** Eating a [[disenchanter]] corpse cures [[hallucination]] and only has a chance of removing a random intrinsic&mdash;the chance is 20% if hallucinating, and 50% otherwise.
** [[Vampire (monster class)|Vampires]] occasionally generate with an [[opera cloak]], as in SLASH'EM.
** [[Nazgul]] have a limited-range scream that travels through walls and [[stun]]s the hero, adapted from SporkHack. Heroes killed by Nazgul arise as [[barrow wight]]s in bones files.
** [[Xorn]]s can eat hard gems.
** Monsters killed by [[zombie]]s have a chance of rising as zombies.
** [[Vault]] [[guard]]s get angry if you eat any [[gold]] in front of them.
** The [[Dark One]] is renamed to Anaraxis the Black as in xNetHack.
** The [[Wizard of Yendor]] can steal any artifact from the hero like other covetous monsters '''''except''''' the [[quest artifact]] of the hero's [[role]]. Additionally, once the Wizard of Yendor’s harassment begins, monsters will frequently spawn on the up stairs of each level&mdash;his harassment can also cause an [[earthquake]] if it occurs outside the Elemental Planes.
** [[Foocubi]] switch genders after a successful seduction attack.
** [[Demon lords and princes]] block teleportation while present on the level, and their lairs are no longer [[no-teleport level]]s&mdash;lawful demon princes will also ask for significantly larger [[bribe]]s, usually thousands of gold pieces. The former is adapted from Nethack 3.7, and the latter comes from SporkHack.
** The [[Riders]] have three times as much health as in vanilla, and are only ambiguously defined as “Riders” until they enter the hero’s line of sight.

==Items==
Several new items are added, including many from other variants, and the [[scroll of amnesia]] from NetHack 3.4.3 is also removed.

===List of new items===
====Armor====
* [[Chromatic dragon scales (UnNetHack)|Chromatic dragon scales]] and [[Chromatic dragon scale mail (UnNetHack)|scale mail]], which grant the extrinsic properties of all [[dragon scales]] and [[dragon scale mail]]s
* [[Tinfoil hat]], which blocks [[telepathy]] and mind blasts while worn

====Scrolls====
* The [[scroll of flood]] creates pools around and/or under the player, and cannot be blanked by water damage.

====Potions====
* The [[Potion of blood (UnNetHack)|potions of blood]] and [[Potion of vampire blood (UnNetHack)|vampire blood]] are added from SLASH’EM, and always appear as [[blood-red potion]]s.

====Rings====
* The [[ring of gain intelligence]], [[ring of gain wisdom]] and [[ring of gain dexterity]] are all added from SLASH’EM.

====Tools====
* The [[iron safe]] is added, which can be cracked using a [[stethoscope]] and otherwise requires magic to open, since unlocking tools do not work on it.

===Changes to existing items===
* General changes:
** An “unidentified” menu option exists for player and container inventories to search only items of unknown beatitude.
** Blessed [[charging]] identifies how many charges an item has.
** Items that are erosion-proofed are auto-identified as such.
** The range of [[projectile]]s is increased when they are fired from the correct [[launcher]], and a [[crossbow]]'s range is no longer dependent on strength.
** Cursed projectiles have a chance to be launched toward the ceiling and land on the thrower's head.
** The strength damage bonus is doubled for [[two-handed]] weapons.
** A hero gains a 1-point bonus to AC for each worn piece of armor that matches their specific race, e.g. a [[dwarvish cloak]] for dwarves and an [[orcish helm]] for orcs.
** Heroes who have both their hands welded to cursed items can open containers if they are in a form that has a head.
** Armor that is thoroughly eroded will be destroyed whenever it would be eroded further.
** [[Color alchemy]]: The products of dipping potions into each other is determined by the colors of potions used instead of the types of potions used. As of version 6.0.0, all colors of potions involved in color alchemy are guaranteed to appear in any given game.
** [[Gem alchemy]]: Adapted from dNetHack, dipping certain gems in [[potions of acid]] changes them to other potions based on the gem used and what color potions are in the game.
** [[Ring]]s are automatically identified when dropped in [[sink]]s.
** [[Wresting]] wands with no charges left will always turn them to dust, but the chance of successfully wresting one last charge is based on the wand's beatitude.
** [[Breaking wands]] with at least 4 charges left has a (charges – 3)/(charges – 2) of creating a trap related to that wand.
** Dropping a container on an [[altar]] reveals the beatitude of both the container and its contents if the hero is not blind.
* Specific items:
** Crossbows require 18 strength for their [[multishot]] bonus, and gnomes only need 16 strength for multishot with crossbows and get a +1 multishot bonus while firing from one.
** The [[elven mithril-coat]] and [[dwarvish mithril-coat]] have their weight lowered to 130 aum.
** The AC granted by dragon scales and dragon scale mail is reduced from 3 and 9 to 1 and 5, respectively.
** [[Hawaiian shirt]]s have designs that can be read.
** The uncursed [[scroll of genocide]] kills all monsters of the selected type on the current level, while the blessed scroll behaves as the uncursed scroll in ''NetHack'' does. The cursed scroll's effect is unchanged.
** Reading a non-cursed [[scroll of gold detection]] while confused reveals a random object class on the current floor, instead of traps.
** Reading a non-cursed [[scroll of light]] while confused summons tame cancelled [[Light (monster class)|lights]].
** The blessed [[scroll of magic mapping]] reveals the location of objects, similar to an uncursed [[potion of object detection]], and non-cursed scrolls will also reveal secret doors.
** Reading a non-blessed [[scroll of punishment]] while confused summons a punisher (a ''very'' bad idea).
** [[Scrolls of remove curse]] autoidentify if they change an item’s known BUC status
** The [[scroll of scare monster]] changes its beatitude from blessed to uncursed or uncursed to cursed each time it is picked up, and turns to dust if picked up while cursed.
** The heavy iron ball uses the [[flail]] skill when wielded as a weapon, but only Convicts can train the flail skill using the iron ball.
* Applying a stethoscope to an [[egg]] identifies the species it belongs to.
* Inhaling the [[vapors]] of a [[potion of hallucination]], {{! of|sickness|or|speed}} will auto-identify those potions.
* The [[ring of regeneration]] only causes [[hunger]] when restoring the hero's HP, and will auto-identify when they take damage.
* The [[wand of cancellation]] is auto-identified if it destroys a [[bag of holding]].
* The [[wand of secret door detection]] is renamed to the wand of detection.
* A [[bag of holding]] that explodes destroys {{frac|13}} of its items and scatters the rest in random directions, which includes the contents of containers inside the exploding bag, and breaks any [[fragile]] items. This is partly adapted from SporkHack.
* A [[bag of tricks]] behaves much differently when charges, and once out of charges it can be used as a magical container (i.e. it will protect its contents from breaking like a bag of holding). However, [[charging]] a bag of tricks will destroy all its contents, and putting a non-cursed [[scroll of charging]] into an uncharged bag of tricks will charge it (and thus destroy its contents, including the scroll).
* The chest in the Castle that contains the [[wand of wishing]] can never be [[Container trap|trapped]].
* [[Oil lamp]]s and [[brass lantern]]s appear in the charging menu, and will give feedback and identify accordingly when they are full or empty.
* Both oil lamps and [[magic lamp]]s auto-identify when [[rubbing]] them.
* Burning stacks of [[candle]]s increases their light radius equal to the square root of the number of candles burnt.
* The [[horn of plenty]] has a small chance to create potions of vampire blood.
* [[Luckstone]]s drastically slow down luck timeout dependent on beatitude, instead of preventing it outright, and the closer luck is to 0, the slower it times out.

==Artifacts==
Several new artifacts are added as well, and the [[Orb of Detection]] is removed.

For the purpose of this list, the [[Amulet of Yendor]] is counted as an 'artifact'.

===List of new artifacts===
* The [[Iron Ball of Liberation]], which is the Convict [[quest artifact]], and is a [[heavy iron ball]] that grants [[warning]], [[displacement]], [[searching]], and [[magic resistance]] while carried, and grants [[phasing]] and [[Punishment|chains itself to the user]] when [[invoked]]
* [[Itlachiayaque]], which replaces the Orb of Detection as the Archeologist's [[quest artifact]], and is a [[shield of reflection]] that grants [[fire resistance]], [[ESP]] and [[half spell damage]] while carried, and can be invoked to produce [[poison cloud]]s
* [[Luck Blade (UnNetHack)|Luck Blade]], an artifact broadsword that is the first sacrifice gift for Convicts, has +1d5 to-hit and +1d6 damage versus monsters and behaveds as a [[luckstone]] of the same beatitude while carried
* The [[portal stones]] - Moonstone, Earthstone, and Sunstone - can be invoked to create connected magic portals.
* [[Thiefbane]], a [[two-handed sword]] given to One-eyed Sam that is not meant to be confused with the other "Bane" artifacts&mdash;it inflicts [[level drain]] and [[cancellation]] upon any [[human or elf]] monster, including the hero regardless of their form, and has a chance of [[beheading]] them.

===Changes to existing artifacts===
* The Amulet of Yendor has a chance of teleporting when dropped by the player or monsters, dependent on its beatitude: {{frac|2}} if cursed, {{frac|4}} if uncursed and {{frac|16}} if blessed. While carried, [[teleportation]] is always blocked, the magic portals connected to the Valley of the Dead cannot be used, and monsters will regularly generate near or on the up stairs.
* All [[Banes]] [[Warned of monster type|warn of their target monsters]] while wielded and have a 20% chance of instakilling them on hit, including a hero in the form of that monster.
* [[Demonbane]] causes demon princes to become hostile while wielded, similar to [[Excalibur]]&mdash;this is adapted from Nethack 3.6.
* As in SporkHack, [[Dragonbane (SporkHack)|Dragonbane]] is changed to a [[dwarvish spear]] that grants multiple elemental resistances while wielded, has +1d4 damage and +1d5 to-hit versus monsters, and can instantly kill any dragons that it hits.
* [[Giantslayer (UnNetHack)|Giantslayer]] is changed to a [[sling]] that has +1d5 to-hit and deals double damage against [[Giant (monster attribute)|giants]] and sets [[strength]] to 18/** while wielded or in the alternate weapon slot.
* [[Grimtooth]] is the first sacrifice gift for [[Rogue]]s, grants [[poison resistance]] while wielded and is permanently [[poisoned]], dealing +1d6 damage to non-resistant monsters with a 10% chance of instakilling them.
* [[The Heart of Ahriman]] grants [[displacement]] and fast [[energy regeneration]] while carried instead of stealth.
* [[The Longbow of Diana]] gives a +1 multishot and +1 damage bonus to all [[arrow]]s fired from it.
* [[Ogresmasher]] deals +1d4 damage to all monsters, sets [[constitution]] to 25 while wielded and has a {{frac|2}} chance of instantly killing [[Ogre (monster class)|ogres]].
* [[Trollsbane]] grants hungerless [[regeneration]] while wielded and prevents [[Troll (monster class)|trolls]] from leaving corpses.
* [[The Tsurugi of Muramasa]] grants [[half physical damage]] while carried, which is adapted from EvilHack.
* [[Vorpal Blade]] deals +1d8 damage, warns of [[Jabberwock (monster class)|the jabberwock monster class]], applies its guaranteed decapitation of [[jabberwock]]s  to [[Vorpal jabberwock (UnNetHack)|vorpal jabberwocks]], and protects from decapitation while wielded.
* [[Werebane]] gives [[polymorph control]] while wielded.

==Wishing==
{{main|Wish#UnNetHack}}
[[Wish]]es from any source except a [[wand of wishing]] can only give non-[[magical item]]s, and can no longer be obtained from [[throne]]s&mdash;to compensate, the [[shield of reflection]] is made non-magical, and wishing for artifacts always succeeds regardless of how many artifacts were generated in that game.

Wishes cannot be used to obtain chromatic dragon scales or anything else related to the monsters themselves.

When wishing for [[projectile]]s, a player can specify a stack of up to 100.

==Other changes==
* Many more [[hallucinatory monster]] names and [[Hallucinatory currency|currencies]] are added.
