The usefulness of these amulets varied by character, from being about on par with an [[amulet of clarity]] for spellcasters to being an absolute godsend for [[berserker]]s.  The amulet prevented the slowness caused by berserking - in effect, it removed most risk caused thereby, giving berserkers free Haste and Might at virtually no cost other than food.  Even high-MR non-berserkers would still find the Haste extension useful, though other amulets such as conservation or resist mutation would sometimes have been better in general.

Desirability

For most characters, it's better than nothing. For casters, its around on par with an amulet of clarity. Any character can appreciate the extension of haste, though you'll likely prefer an amulet of conservation or resist mutation by the lategame.

A godsend for Berserkers, since it prevents the slow after berserking. You'll still have to worry about paralysis, at least if Trog piety isn't high enough.

History

  • The amulet of resist slowing removed in 0.6, replaced with the amulet of stasis.
