Version 0.29: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
A weapon to bring forth guilt from the guilty. It was first wielded by the archangel Lucriel, who, on seeing the suffering of the first mortals, led them as an army against the cruelty of the gods. The ragged survivors of Lucriel's army took this weapon with them into the wilderness, the sole remnant of an archangel's virtue.

Desirability

Condemnation is quite useful for any Polearms user by being a +8 trishula, with holy wrath being more useful in the demon-infested extended game. In addition, enemies hit by the trident will take damage equal to the damage they deal out. Not only does this bonus damage bypass all defenses, but it works especially well with summons; damage to them also triggers Anguish, and Condemnation can reach past allies to strike enemies from a position of relative safety. For non-summoners, a demon trident of another brand may be more consistent outside of extended, though the other intrinsics are a nice bonus.

Like all trishulas, Condemnation cannot be wielded by undead or demonspawn players.
