Fixed flavour text to be accurate to ingame. LearnDB states that umbra is a double to stealth, not x1.5, updating to reflect that unless otherwise noted.)

Version 0.27: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
A black ring that can make its wearer one with the shadows. It surrounds you with an aura of shadow, increasing your stealth and reducing the accuracy of all within it (including the wearer).

Desirability

The ring's umbra reduces both player and monster accuracy and doubles the player's stealth (in addition to the +50 bonus). Very nice for stealthy characters and still good for most others. The accuracy penalty from umbra is mostly negligible.

Followers of Yredelemnul and Dithmenos don't suffer from the umbra's accuracy penalty (though followers of Dithmenos generate their own umbra that eventually becomes larger than the ring's at higher piety levels).

History

  • Prior to 0.19, it had See Invisible and rN+ instead of a +50 Stealth bonus.
  • Prior to 0.14, it had +4 EV and -4 accuracy instead of umbra.
