An amulet which exerts a force that blocks some incoming attacks, and can even reflect any blocked ranged attacks back towards the attacker. |
Wearing an amulet of reflection provides 5 SH and the reflection ego. When projectiles (either ranged weapons or certain types of spells like Stone Arrow) are blocked, they are reflected back at the attacker. Each time it is worn, the amulet must be attuned to you at full HP before it begins taking effect.
Strategy
Players with high SH from shields and some uncommon mutations benefit the most, but these amulets are surprisingly helpful for anyone. They can make packs of centaurs and yaktaurs much less threatening, and can potentially cause significant reciprocal harm by reflecting missiles back at their sources.
The unrandart Brooch of Shielding provides even more SH than an amulet of reflection, but has the spirit shield ego instead and is not guaranteed to appear.
History
- Prior to 0.25, amulets of reflection provided 2 to 6 SH and did not require attunement at full HP.
- The amulet of reflection was added in 0.18.
