Desirability
Damnation's[1] base enchantment is decent, and those who have the appropriate skill may occasionally want this. Bear in mind that the damnation explosions it generates are significantly louder than normal crossbow shots, so expect to wake up nearby foes. In addition, this weapon mulches every bolt, so you may run out of bolts quickly unless you already have hundreds of bolts or follow Trog or Okawaru.
Damnation can be found in many Gehenna:7 vaults, but may also be generated randomly.
Tips & Tricks
You can make bolts explode at a specific tile if you fire with f. instead of ff or Tab. This is useful for fighting evasive enemies and enemies with Repel Missiles.
History
- Prior to 0.19, Damnation provided rF++ and +40 MR at the cost of rC- in addition to damnation damage.
- This crossbow was renamed to Damnation from Hellfire in 0.18 along with the reflavor of the damage type. Prior to 0.18, the explosion counted as fire damage for the purpose of vulnerability, but ignored fire resistance.
- Prior to 0.15, Hellfire was a +6, +9 crossbow.
- Prior to 0.14, it had the flame brand.
