Icon Amulet of inaccuracy.png
An amulet that makes its wearer less accurate in melee combat and when targeting monsters via ranged attacks or spells.

Wearing an amulet of inaccuracy decreases the accuracy of each of your attacks, physical or magical, by 5. This utterly useless amulet would never be used if not for the fact that it always generates cursed. Consider this a good reason to avoid putting on unidentified amulets without a scroll of remove curse on hand.

Although they serve no useful purpose, artefacts might spawn with some useful properties. For example, the unrandart amulet of the Air adds several very useful benefits to compensate for its penalty to accuracy.

History

  • In 0.27, amulets of inaccuracy, along with the curses binding them to adventures, were removed. Amulet of the Air still has the Inacc property, though.
  • Prior to 0.15, amulets of inaccuracy were not always cursed, and would not identify when worn.
  • Prior to 0.12, this amulet's negative effect would not calculate correctly for ranged weapons.
