Desirability

Most characters will find this amulet useful, but only as a switch. It provides two levels of negative energy resistance, and thus can quickly render you drain-resistant if you find yourself looking down a shadow dragon's maw, and electricity resistance is fantastic when facing Nikola, storm dragons, or an electric golem. Don't leave it on, though; the -TELE can sometimes cost you your life, and the increased hunger is not much fun either.

History

One of the oldest artefacts, it also used to provide rF+ and rC+. Sadly, that made it somewhat game-breaking, so these were removed in the pre-DCSS days.
