    1-9 feeling at DL4 Hard Leather Cap of Intelligence +2 and a Rod of Acid Balls. Playing a mage, I think I've got what I need for a while...

        Just had a 4-9 level at 700 ft with my Half-Elf priest

        Found two little goodies


        g) Law Dragon Scale Mail of Craftsmanship [36,+20] {??}
        Found lying on the floor at 700 feet (level 14)

        You do not know the full extent of this item's powers.


        n) a Rod of Drain Life


        Only real downside is my intel is low because I'm a priest. So the success rates only are 30-33%

          DL 6, LF 2-9, Hobbit Rogue at about CL 10:

          Pseudo-Dragon Scale Mail [32, +10]


          Just vanilla DSM, and at 20# a bit heavy for a li'l ol' hobbit; but for that breath attack, he'll find a way to make it work. Orc mobs: say hello to my little friend...

              the Cloak of Helin [1,+21] <+4>
              Found lying on the floor at 50 feet (level 1)

              +4 wisdom.
              +4 constitution.
              Provides resistance to Lightning, Light.
              Provides protection from fear.
              Cannot be harmed by Acid, Fire.

              Sadly, am playing Rogue, not a Priest or Paladin.

              ETA: shortly thereafter, I found Boots of Speed +5 on DL9. No complaints!

                @gg-
                +4CON on a cloak is excellent, though I agree it would be better for a Paladin.

                    This lovely pair of cesti made life a lot easier for my current mage. Not spectacular in power, but incredibly useful nonetheless:
                    Code:
                    k) the Set of Caestus 'Andir' (+0,+3) [5,+21] <+2, +5>
                         Found lying on the floor in a vault at 1500 feet (level 30)
                         
                         +2 dexterity.
                         [B]+5 stealth[/B].
                         Cannot be harmed by Acid, Fire.

                      Lvl 26, 5-9: rod of healing. Disappointing, I am going to store it for later as my hobbit rogue with 177 hp cant make much use of it yet (49,7% success rate).

                        This one doesn't technically qualify since the level feeling was only 8 but I'm going to mention it anyway since it was on level 1:

                        Robe of Permanence [2, +21]
                        Provides resistance to acid, lightning, fire, cold, sound.
                        Cannot be harmed by acid, fire.
                        Sustains your strength, intelligence, wisdom, dexterity, constitution.
                        Sustains your life force.

                        Took me quite a while to find out what it actually was since I didn't know any runes at that point, but a mysterious Robe [2, +21] with unknown powers sure got my attention!
                        Oh you icky things, don't you know you're driving your mamas and papas insane…

                          Lvl 43, 5-9:

                          the Adamantite Plate Mail of Galan (-4) [80,+20] <+4>
                          Found lying on the floor at 2150 feet (level 43)

                          +4 intelligence.
                          Provides immunity to Cold.
                          Provides resistance to Dark, Sound.
                          Cannot be harmed by Acid.

                          When activated, it fires a ball of lightning with radius 2,
                          dealing 85 damage at the centre, which your device skill increases
                          by 27% for an average of 107.9 damage and extends electricity
                          resistance for 20+1d20 turns.
                          Takes 81 to 99 turns to recharge at your current speed.
                          Your chance of success is 95.8%

                          Not useful, though I am holding onto it.

                            If you were playing a weak character that is a great find. For a half-troll warrior, it's only okay.

                              I am playing a rogue who is wearing elvenkind leathers with rpois and a shield of preservation. If I were to use this, I would lose:

                              - a ring slot, as I'd have to equip = of rpois
                              - disenchantment resistance and stat sustains as I'd have to equip shield of resistance
                              - speed from +4 to +2
                              - 1/3 of my mana pool, despite the int bonus

                              I would gain:

                              - cold immunity
                              - AC which would allow me to ... melee Ologs ?

                                I find it interesting how much AC affects treasure feeling. If this armor was [48, +15] it'd be a 5 or 6 at this depth. That's a tough call. I guess it depends a lot on how good your current rings are. Personally I *love* disenchantment resistance. Cold immunity sure is nice but I don't think losing speed and INT and disenchant and a ring slot is worth it. It will increase the value of your home, though.
