In [[0.12]], this artefact's base type was changed to an [[amulet of inaccuracy]] (thus eliminating amulets of controlled flight entirely, as levitation itself was removed in favor of flight).  To compensate for this, it got a permanent [[Repel Missiles]] effect.

Desirability

The amulet of the Air[1] might lower your accuracy, but it offers great benefits in return. Air Magic specialists obviously benefit the most, though any character can appreciate this artefact. Both Repel Missiles and rElec are rare and valuable intrinsics. Any character who has seriously developed their skills will barely notice the accuracy drop. Overall, it's a strong amulet, especially in places where RMsl and/or rElec are useful.
