Desirability

Hellfire's base enchantment is decent, and it provides the same resistances as a fire dragon armour, as well as a healthy dose of magic resistance. Those characters who can take the rC- hit and have the appropriate skill may occasionally want this. Bear in mind that hellfire damage is treated as fire damage for the purpose of fire-vulnerable opponents, but cuts through all fire resistance (except for when dealing with certain undead and demonic foes).

History

Prior to 0.15, Hellfire was a +6, +9 crossbow.

Prior to 0.14, it had the flame brand.
