New memorable randarts

[bio_hazard]

I wonder whether @ gets any bonus to 3-pointers with this bow:

the Long Bow 'Lebron' (x6) (+14,+20) <+3>
-----------------------------------------
+3 dexterity.
+3 shooting power.
Provides resistance to acid, nexus.
Cannot be harmed by acid, fire.

If it's anything like my ethereal slippers of "Jordan," I'm sure to be disappointed by the supposed stat boost...

*Slays* Warriors

*Slays* Warriors

Oh, didn't think about that!

[bio_hazard]

Uh, thanks Ufthak, you shouldn't have

The Augmented Chain Mail 'Ilgabar' (-2) [42, -9] {cursed}
Dropped by Ufthak of Cirith Ungol at 1200 feet (level 24)

Cursed.
Cannot be harmed by acid
Drains experience

No wonder he was so keen on upgrading to Frodo's mithril chain mail.

Oh my god!
Is it heavy? Or can you get full blows with it?

[Pete Mack]

It's a rapier, so sure I get max blows. I am now getting 665/turn vs. Evil, fully buffed (7 blows/turn for a Rogue.)
Edit: Killed Cantoras and Vecna, each in standup fights with no healing. Only ever did that with Deathwreaker and MoD +2 attacks before. Certainly not with a randart.

[Pete Mack]

So that was an easy fight. For all the huge stack of *Healing* and Mass Banishment, I used only 1 one of the former (replaced during th fight), and 2 of the latter, along with 6 !Heal and 11 CCW

[MattB]

It's a rapier, so sure I get max blows.

Don't randarts simetimes 'compensate' by making absurdly heavy versions of light weapons? Or did I imagine that...?

[Estie]

Randarts can get heavier than the normal base item, but you can always get max blows regardless (unless you are a warrior). It might take a bit more str/dex.

Self-enchanting! Now to waste turns getting it to +15/+15....

[MattB]

That, sir, is a *lot* of damage!

[PowerWyrm]

That, sir, is a *lot* of damage!

Even more if you consider that its activation is *enchant weapon* and it's only (+6,+11)...

[Thraalbee]
