Desirability

The amulet of the Air[1] has a poor base type, but its benefits outweigh the Inaccuracy ego. Permanent repel missiles is normally only on scarves and spell enhancers outside of staves are hard to come by, while electricity resistance and on-demand flight 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.
