    Default Best non-artifact item ever

    found in the casino store,
    Penetrating boomerang of slaying - a cool 1.8 Million GP.
    Is there anything that can survive that?

    You exactly hit the emperor moloch and severely wound it. [Not mentioned: the boomerang happens not to return.] Out of ammunition. The emperor moloch picks up the penetrating boomerang of slaying. (x, ydz+w)

    (True story, though not with that item, but rather the RCT. Still, I love these kinds of boomerangs and almost always train myself in their use if I find them. And often even if I don't - scurgari are pretty cool too!)

    Epic! Does the chance of returning depend on skill?
    You steal a scroll labelled HITME. The orc hits you.

    I hope boomerangs and scurgari get a little more love in the coming ADOM releases. It's a pity that everyone trains bows and crossbows due to the availability of slaying ammo.

    I've got a question.
    Is it true that penetrating weapons do not ignore armor on critical hit (i.e, "penetrating" prefix becomes useless)?

    Nice item indeed, but it doesn't beat a brutal eternium two-handed sword of penetration

    I know Dx and Luck factor, no idea about weapon skill.

    Hahaha... I found an unerring boomerang of penetration once and wondered if it was any good.
    I need a shorter sig.
