Desirability

The amulet of the Air may have a terrible base type, but its other benefits more than make up for it. Permanent repel missiles and +5 evasion are hard to beat, while electricity resistance and flight on demand are very useful from time to time. Any character that has seriously developed its weapon 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 0.12, 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.
