Macabre finger necklace

Version 0.31: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

An ugly dangling finger on a string. It would look better with a ring on it.

+1 ring slot

Desirability

The macabre finger necklace effectively replaces the amulet slot with a 3rd ring slot, which can be helpful. For example, a ring of evasion offers better defensive stats than an amulet of reflection. It really shines when you already have 2 great artefact rings, and need resistances (or want to wear a 3rd great ring).

The last ring slot will automatically be removed when you unequip the necklace. If your third ring is cursed by Ashenzari, you will not be able to remove the macabre finger necklace.

This item is considered evil, so the good gods forbid its use.

History

• Prior to 0.31, the macabre finger necklace was not considered evil.
• In 0.18, the warding ego was removed from amulets, leaving the macabre finger necklace as just an extra ring slot with rN+.
• The macabre finger necklace was added in 0.14.
