Talk:Exercise

Two Questions:

1. Do you get benefits of exercise when wearing Gloves of Strength or Dexterity?

2. What happens if one loses strength due to poisoning, then exercises it until it gains a point, then applies a unicorn horn? To what level will it rise (if any)?

Two questions

1.) Does this look like Usenet?

2.) How about this? http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.roguelike.nethack/topics

Problem solved. :)

Source inconsistency

Two external sources are cited here mentioning exercise. One of them (http://www.helsinki.fi/~vviitane/spoilers/exercise) says the formula for stat point increases is 1-(stat)/20. The other (http://www.geocities.com/dcorbett42/nethack/exercise.htm says the formula is (18-(stat))/19. What gives? What is the actual formula?

reset_attribute_clock in attrib.c

reset_attribute_clock in attrib.c was removed in 3.6.0, and exerchk was heavily re-written. Could use some updating by someone who understands the code better than me. --Tone (talk) 02:37, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Methods of abuse missing

This page refers to the 'attributes' page (which redirects to 'attribute') for a list of abuse methods, but there is no such list. Has it been deleted? --Hexcoder (talk) 22:31, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

The abuse, exercise, and other details were moved from Attribute into the individual attribute pages, such as Strength. I have updated the wording on this page. Cathartes (talk) 03:34, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
