Version 0.15: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.


Type Jewellery
Name Ring of slaying
Icon Ring of slaying.png
This ring increases or decreases the wearer's effectiveness with ranged weapons and melee attacks.

A ±X ring of slaying affects accuracy and damage dealt by X in the same format as weapon enchantments, maxing out at +9 (need confirmation). It will affect both melee (including unarmed) and ranged combat, but not magic.

If the modifier is negative, the ring is often cursed.

A functionally identical effect occasionally appears on artefact jewellery and armour, denoted as "Slay ±X".

History

Before the weapon enchantment merge in 0.15, rings of slaying had two distinct bonuses--one for accuracy, and one for damage.

Prior to 0.10, slaying was more powerful as it was included before the weapon skill multiplier.
