Amulet of the Air

A sky-blue amulet, suffused with enchantments that protect the wearer and make their Air spells more powerful. Its creator lacked just one thing: a steady hand.

Desirability

The amulet of the Air has a poor base type, but its benefits outweigh the Inaccuracy ego. Permanent repel missiles is normally only available on scarves and spell enhancers outside of staves are hard to come by, while electricity resistance and flight are very useful from time to time. Any character that has seriously developed their skills throughout the game will barely notice the accuracy drop, making this an excellent amulet to swap in on occasion or even wear regularly.

History

• Prior to 0.27, this artefact gave +5 EV, but did not boost Air magic.
• Prior to 0.12, this artefact's base type was an amulet of controlled flight. When this intrinsic was removed in 0.12, the base type was changed to an amulet of inaccuracy and it received the permanent Repel Missiles effect to make up for that penalty.
