Version 0.18: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
A dirty hat. It bears signs of surviving many weird explosions, which suggests it may have means of protecting the head inside from the risks involved in alchemy experiments.

Desirability

The hat of the Alchemist is a very desirable artefact for a character with solid AC, providing many useful resistances. The decision is not so clear for low-AC characters, but they will likely want to at least keep it around for certain situations.

History

In 0.18, the amulet of resist mutation was removed, leaving this artifact as one of the few remaining sources of mutation resistance.

Prior to 0.16, it provided only rF+, rC+, rElec, and MR+, but had a +2 enchantment.
