gives him base immunity

I've never seen more than two.

Thats a sweet ring. Most fighter types want damage and couldnt care less about int; youre not supposed to find this as a necromancer.

I was close enough to endgame that the Con was more important to Int (I was already maxed out on Int) But it was worth 100+ HP

Going into the level I was wearing a ring of CON +6 and a ring of Speed +11
Leaving I had to artifaces that added up to the same :)

prevents teleportation ...

So, err, when my latest @ died an unfortunate death, I looked at the randarts and saw this:

I guess Ill have to make another paladin now, though this thing is not going to turn up early.

That's got to be a record - far more powerful than Grond even!

This damage output looks incredible even for more high power variants like Zangband branches.

Really wish this was actually usable as anything but an 1-turn ESP button...

Remember that you can remove curses with scrolls, you should check what power these have to see if you can remove them.
