: A couple of notes on this list.  First off, it's apparently for COA (Gorgoroth
: is a COA deity, and the stats on #0806 are significantly different from RTI's
: #0806 Staff of the Dead).

Thanks for telling this, Usually I say which module it's from. Ieven try
to get others to say where items are from when they post something, so I
feel kind of eh.. (hmm how to say) stupid?

Anyway everything on above list is from NCoa.

: Second off, INV/DAM is *NOT* an additive quality.  The weapon does *not* give
: +1 INV and +12 DAM.  For INV/DAM, you get whatever gives you the highest INV
: and whatever gives you the highest DAM.  So for instance, if you have a
: netherworld character (INV/DAM 2/2) with a Shield of Vol (INV 3) and a Sword
: of Flame (DAM 10), your character's INV/DAM would be 3/10 (shield gives highes
: INV, sword gives highest DAM).

Thanks again, as I get my info from a lot of people, sometimes already
typed in on disk, these things might slip. But I'll tell the relevant
person not to make the mistake again.

: Also note that while there are exceptions, by and large, weapons give DAM,
: armor gives INV, and statuses give both.  I would doubt that the Staff of the
: Dead gives any INV bonuses - you may have just equipped with better armor righ
: then.  But like I said, there are exceptions.

This might be an exception, but just to be sure I'll ask the person if
he's really sure about this.

: Also FYI, supernatural statuses are treated as if they were items.  So if you
: are keeping an item database, item #0373 is "netherworld status".  Races are
: also stored this way (item 0204 is "dwarf").  My guess is that there's a
: hidden "status item slot", as well as a hidden "race item slot", which allows
: MG's code to figure out things like MR, SAR, INV, and DAM by running through
: the character's items list.  At least, if I were MG, that's the way I'd do it
: (well, not really - I'd do it in C++).

Yup I knew that, and now we're at it, which kind soul could post some
id's of non-documented statuses, and some id's of Titles?
