X* Determining your chances for successfully enchanting armor is fairly simple.
XYour chance for succeeding (and not causing the item to disintegrate due to
Xover enchantment) is totally dependent upon the current bonus of the item. If
Xthe current bonus is three or less (five or less for elven mithril coats), you
Xwill always succeed. Otherwise, you have one chance out of whatever the
Xcurrent bonus of the item is. In other words, if the bonus is +4, you have a
X1/4 or 25% chance of being successful. If the bonus is +8, you have a 1/8 or
X12.5% chance of being successful. Thus, it is theoretically possible to
Xenchant armor up to +maxint, but the laws of probability would not favor it!
X
X** Chances for successfully enchanting weapons are far easier. Basically, you
Xwill always succeed if the weapon is at +5 or less. Once you're over that,
Xyou have a 2/3 chance of being successful each time, regardless of the bonus.

XTOOL EFFECTS:
X
XBag of holding - will hold many items without adding their weight to your
X total pack weight. Does not work correctly, especially do not bless it
X while it is full, but curse it when full. Also, do not put a bag of
X holding, a bag of tricks, or a wand of cancellation into a bag of holding.
X Both items and contents will blow up.
XBag of tricks - will allow you to create a monster whenever you activate it.
XBlindfold - makes you blind. Useful when you have telepathy.
XBugle - will awaken soldiers on level. Useful for getting into castle.
XChest - holds things, but is very heavy.
XCredit card - can be used to open locked doors.
XCrystal ball - can be used to detect things on level.
XDrum - awakens monsters; may scare them away.
XDrum of earthquake - will initiate an earthquake whose intensity depends on
X player level. That is, it creates random pits.
XExpensive camera - can be flashed at monsters to blind them. Can also blind
X self (useful if you don't have a blindfold).
XFigurine - when activated will provide a tame pet of the same type as the
X figurine.
XFire horn - when played will act as a wand of fire; a ray of flame shoots out
X in desired direction.
XFlute - may calm snakes if player has enough dexterity. Can also be used to
X get into the castle.
XFrost horn - when played will act as a wand of cold; a ray of cold shoots out
X in desired direction.
XHarp - may calm nymph if player has enough dexterity. Can also be used to get
X into the castle.
XHorn - will awaken monsters; range depends on player level. May also scare
X monsters.
XIce box - will prevent monster corpses from spoiling if they are promptly
X placed within the ice box.
XKey - differently shaped keys will open differently shaped locks.
XLamp - will light up a room when activated.
XLarge box - holds things, but is very heavy.
XLeash - will keep your pet with you, even if you fall through a trapdoor,
X teleport, etc. However, your pet tends to get in your way more.
XLock pick - used to open locked doors and chests.
XMagic flute - may put monsters to sleep; area of effect depends on player
X level.
XMagic harp - charms monsters; area of effect depends on player level.
XMagic lamp - if rubbed, a djinni will appear. Djinnis from blessed lamps will
X always give wishes; from normal lamps may give a wish (random); from cursed
X lamps they will never give a wish. May be recharged once with a blessed
X scroll of charging.
XMagic marker - useful for writing graffiti on dungeon floors. Also can be
X used to write spells on blank scrolls.
XMagic whistle - will teleport all of your pets on the level to the same room
X as you.
XMirror - can scare some monsters. Also useful for reflecting gaze attacks.
X Can be used in conjunction with blindfold to determine relative position of
X medusa or Wizard of Yendor.
XPick-axe - can be used to dig through walls. Also useful as a weapon.
XSack - will hold items, freeing inventory space.
XSkeleton key - will open any locked door or chest.
XStethescope - will tell you stats on creature applied to (HP, level, AC,
X gold, etc.).
XTinning kit - allows you to tin monster corpses to take with you. Heavy.
XTin opener - allows you to open tins easier.

X monsters may do likewise, though.
X
X------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XIDENTIFYING TOOLS:
X
XOnce again, make sure that the item is not cursed before playing around with
Xit. Most tools are fairly obvious as to their function. For instance, a
Xblindfold is always a blindfold, with no other magical properties. Certain
Xitems (horns, for instance) will have more than one type that appear the same
Xthough. Here's how you can figure out what they are:
X
XBags - first of all, drop the bag on the ground and #loot it. If you feel
Xsomething furry, it's a bag of tricks. Otherwise, load up until you can't
Xcarry anything more. Then dump some stuff into the bag (by applying it). If
Xyou can then pick up more, it's a bag of holding.
X
XDrums - activate the drum. If it's a drum of earthquake, you'll know it
Ximmediately from the pits opening up around you.
X
XFlutes - try playing the flute when you have several monsters around you. If
Xthey go to sleep, it's a magical flute.
X
XHarps - try playing the harp when you have several monsters around you. If
Xthey become charmed (tame), you have a magic harp.
X
XHorns - activate the horn, tell it to improvise, and give it a direction (if
Xit asks). You'll immediately notice the effect if it's magical.
X
XKeys - try a key on various locks. If it appears to open all of them, it's
Xprobably a skeleton key. (Note, however, that a credit card works just as
Xwell, and is lighter.)
X
XLamps - try activating the lamp. If it has no oil, it's a magic lamp.
X
XWhistles - try blowing it. If it produces a high whistle, it's normal. A
Xwierd whistling will be a magic whistle.

X
X------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XIDENTIFYING WANDS:
X
XWhen identifying a wand, generally the first thing I do is try to engrave with
Xit. Many wands will be either be immediately identified upon trying to
Xengrave (for instance, a wand of light will light up the room or a wand
Xwishing will give you a wish), and failing that, you can often figure out what
Xthe wand is based upon the message that you're given.
X
XIf this doesn't work, find a handy monster to zap the wand at (not your pet -
Xthey're not invincible). Make sure you're standing on a diagonal from the
Xmonster, so the wand won't bounce back at you. Now, zap the wand and see what
Xhappens. You'll often be able to immediately figure out what happened. (A
Xbrief note here: be careful not to mistake make invisible for teleport - just
Xbecause the monster disappears doesn't mean it's not still there!)
X
XIf you still can't figure out what it is, try zapping it when you're near
Xwhere you think a secret door is (to check for secret door detection) if it's
Xnon-directional, or zap it at a doorway (to check for opening or locking) if
Xit's directional.
X
XFailing all of these tests usually means it's a wand of nothing.
X
X------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XWEAPONS:
X
XThe damage that a given weapon will do is 1 through x, where x is the damage
Xlisted for that weapon against the type of creature that you just hit (small
Xor large - anything larger than human is considered large). Certain weapons
Xalso get additional bonuses due to the weapon type. Finally, any magical
Xenchantments that your weapon might have (i.e. +3, etc.) are added onto damage
Xin a direct one-to-one ratio.

XKNOWN BUGS:
X
XThe following are known bugs in patch level nine of nethack v3:
X
X1. Saving a character while the moon is full will decrease the character's
Xluck by one. Restoring a character while the moon is full will not increase
Xthe character's luck by one as intended. However, starting a character on a
Xfull moon will.
X
X2. Elves are not generated with elven stuff (weapon and armor) as intended.
X
X3. When a bag of holding is placed inside another bag of holding, an
Xexplosion is created - this isn't a bug. What is a bug is that if a bag of
Xholding is on the ground, you #loot it, tell it you want to put somthing in
Xit, and put another bag of holding in it, the dungeon will collapse.
X
X4. Blessing or cursing a non-empty bag of holding doesn't properly adjust the
Xweight of the bag.
X
X5. If you are wearing an amulet of life saving and try to eat something
Xwhile satiated, the amulet will save your life and then you will continue
Xyour meal and promptly die again.
X
X6. When a tame monster attacks another monster and the other monster is not
Xaffected due to intrinsic immunities, you will get a message (ex: "The red
Xmold doesn't seem hot!") regardless of whether your pet is in sight or not.
X
X7. If the drawbridge of the castle is closed (via a wand of locking),
Xanything on the drawbridge will completely cease to exist.
