So how are we feeling about "junk"?

I just checked with Takkaria on IRC and he is fine with it so it will probably go into the code after 3.2 comes out.

I'll see what takk thinks, but I like the idea of wearables having to pass a certain power threshold before being considered "good" or "great" relative to dlev.

FYI Unangband does the inverse, which is boost every good and great item to a minimum acceptable power level (which is higher for great items). The problem with the current version which I am rectifying at the moment in the source is that there are too few ways to boost armour in particular.

standard boost should be a supercharge to AC. This goes doubly so for DSM.

Well I personally like almost all the changes that have been made. I much prefer playing a game that is continually being refined and having new features added.

Reducing the need for squelch is good. I never understood why the need to constantly update a squelch database is a fun concept.

Dropping items in stacks is great, because otherwise you get to the point where you have a full inventory and you'll never drop something for a single consumable. I wouldn't drop 20 ?teleport for one ?tLevel, but I might for a stack of them.
Do warriors ever collect !rFire ? I've never bothered myself.

I do think that the game is too easy now though.
