New memorable randarts

[Ugramoth]

Found on level 9!

Level 16 mage is very happy now. He kept casting identify after identify and this thing just keeps having ?? on it...

Dagger of Malionar (1d4) (+9, +6) [+14] <+5, +1>:
Found lying on the floor at 450 feet (level 9)

+5 wisdom
+1 constitution
Slays demons (powerfully), giants, trolls, orcs, animals, evil creatures.
Branded with poison.
Provides immunity to lightning.
Provides resistance to shards, chaos.
Cannot be harmed by acid.
Sustains intelligence, wisdom, dexterity, constitution.
Slows your metabolism. Grants telepathy. Grants the ability to see invisible things. Prevents paralysis. Blessed by the gods.

When activated, it creates a frost bolt with damage 12d8.
Takes 57 to 63 turns to recharge.

Some troll warrior might grumble about 1d4 +6 damage, but high-elf mage, not so much. I don't remember *ever* seeing telepathy or immunity items at this depth, and getting them in all-in-one package wouldn't be too bad for something found in vault at 4000 feet...

[Ed_47569]

That's a fantastic find - would be even better for a priest though!

At Level 9, getting FA and SI on a single item is fantastic, never mind all the rest.

[Grotug]

pair of launchers:

The Heavy Crossbow of Niria (x7) (+6, +27) <+3>
provides resistance to lightning, light
protects against confusion
sustains Intelligence,
prevents paralysis
Activates frostball (50 damage)

You show me a better launcher. You can't. But I can:

The Long Bow of Idrimon (x6) (+13, +29) <+3>
branded with cold
provides resistance to fire, acid, cold
protects against fear
slows metabolism and sustains life force.
Activates for Berserker Rage d50+50 turns.

Both of these launchers were dropped within minutes of each other from slayed uniques (ringwraiths).

SI? That item has ESP which makes SI even unnecessary.

[Estie]

the Awl-Pike of Halmion (7d8) (+8,+14)
Dropped by a dark elven lord at 1700 feet (level 34)

Slays dragons (powerfully), demons, orcs.
Provides resistance to light.

There have been better weapons in this thread, and earlier, but after having to make do with a beaked axe of frost (< 200 damage) for most of the time, this feels great.

Slay orc is, alas, obsolete; I killed Azog and his son on the last level, with a shortbow of power and frost arrows.


Edit:

Luck continues for this character:

the Bar Chain Mail 'Harnor' (-1,+8) [45,+17] <+1>
Dropped by Mîm, Betrayer of Turin at 2900 feet (level 58)

+1 attack speed.

A Light Crossbow from my current Angband.live! character. The damage output is huge - even just ordinary bolts do almost 200 points. I shudder to think what a branded Seeker bolt is going to be like. Not quite as good as Grotug's pair of launchers, but 'l take it -


the Light Crossbow of Andorn (x5) (+12,+32) <+3, +2> {Dex+3,FA,ac}
Found lying on the floor at 1600 feet (level 32)

A mechanical bow made of wood, it is cocked to augment the strength of its wielder.

+3 dexterity.
+2 shooting power.
Provides resistance to acid, cold.
Cannot be harmed by acid, fire.
Sustains dexterity.
Prevents paralysis.
