Amulet of resist slowing

Obsolete: This article refers to an aspect of the game which has been removed. It is retained for historical reference only.

The amulet of resist slowing prevents the player from receiving the slow status effect. In addition, it extended the duration of haste effects (it resists you from slowing down from hasted speed).

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.
• In very ancient versions of Crawl, these were known as amulets of maintain speed.
