-The '''Sceptre of Torment''' is a poor base weapon with a decent enchantment value and an absolutely staggering special ability - it passively inflicts [[torment]] on everything in your [[line of sight]] (including you) with a 50% chance every time you engage in melee while wielding it. When facing anything that isn't torment immune, this is an extremely effective weapon for quickly cutting everything on-screen down to size, though only if you happen to be [[undead]], [[lichform]], or [[torment#Torment Resistance and Immunity|torment resistant]] yourself. The living will take enough self-damage wielding this that they'd be placing themselves in serious danger every fight (though rN+++ followers of [[Kiku]], [[gargoyle]]s, and [[Statue Form]]-users might be able to trim the damage down enough to make it tempting). For torment-immune enemies, it's a very poor weapon choice, so bring a backup for demons and the undead.
