Desirability

The hat of the Bear Spirit[1] is a dangerous item for melee characters, if only due to the *Rage. However, it does provide some useful buffs; so as long as you can handle the berserk by pre-emptively controlling fights, and don't always use it, this hat can prove to be somewhat useful.

For non-melee characters, *Rage is much more managable, while any MP-related negatives from spirit shield are compensated with a great willpower boost. Casters can inscribe your held item with !a so that you don't accidentally trigger Bearserk, while melee attacking with a ranged weapon forces a prompt, regardless of settings.

History

  • In 0.29, the hat now causes you to go bearserk.
  • Prior to 0.28, the hat of the Bear Spririt had evocable berserk (instead of *Rage), rN+, but no buffs to the berserk status.
  • In 0.14 the MR provided was increased from 50 to 80.
