ADOM Guidebook

Notation for item appendices

Most items are listed with the "common" group, then the "noble" group (expensive metals and the like), then artifacts. + denotes an artifact which is obtained through game plot, * an artifact which is obtained randomly. H(+x, mdn) denotes hand-to-hand damage, M() missile damage. Effect abilities conferred are abbreviated. +Tele means "grants teleportation", -Fire means "fire resistance", =Fire (two lines, get it?) means "fire immunity". Slaying powers are denoted by !. Most items are listed with their unidentified appearance. If this appearance is shown in (), that means the appearance is not always the same, but the "associated" or "most common" appearance. For expendable magical items (wands, scrolls etc, not worn equipment) imagine that ALL appearances are listed in (). Not everything is filled in. ALL STATISTICS ARE "BASE" NUMBERS AND CAN BE ADJUSTED UP OR DOWN AS THE ITEM APPEARS.

As always, corrections are invited.
