Hello everyone!
As we all know, the latest versions of ADOM introduced a bunch of new mechanics, quests, items and monsters. Right now these versions are available to people who participated in the indiegogo campaign and are restricted to the general populace. Thus I think we should not yet add all the new stuff on existing content pages to avoid making things confusing for people who use the wiki to play the latest open version. My opinion is by no means the law, so I'd like some other to speak their mind. If we reach a consensus on this among active contributors, we can put in temporary policy to block edits that add new stuff; or simply inform everyone that does edit the wiki and has access to the prerelease version that we should wait.

r73+ Items
- 1 Magical staves
- 2 Wands
- 3 Bracers
- 4 Body armor
- 5 Shields and other armor
- 6 Rings
- 7 Potions
- 8 Weapons
All magic staves appear as quarterstaff when unidentified. They can be activated by 'U'sing or 'z'apping. Blessed staves recharge four times as fast as uncursed staves, and uncursed staves recharge twice as fast as cursed staves. Staves recharge twice as fast if they are discharged while being wielded. Magic staves are counted as normal melee weapons, and can be generated with prefixes and suffixes. For instance, it is possible for a flaming staff of strength and devastation to be generated.
Recharge ranges go from the minimum (blessed and wielded) to the maximum (cursed and not wielded). For a range of 300-4800, this gives the following recharge times:

Class Melee To-Hit Bonuses
Classes have several different progressions for melee to-hit bonuses. At each level, melee to-hit is increased by 0, 1, or 2. Each progression seems to have a repeating pattern of increases (of periods 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30); the numbers listed below are somewhat based on extrapolation and may not be 100% accurate.
Lowest to-hit: Healer, Mindcrafter

Magic Resistance Testing - Wrap Up
It seems like spells fall into four categories: only ignorable with magic resistance, ignorable with magic resistance or save (i.e. there is some base chance for any monster to resist), not ignorable (mostly well-known stuff that I didn't have to test; e.g. ball spells), and always ignored (just web).
Character level reduces magic resistance (by about (L/2)%), while spell efficiency reduces the chance of a save.
Of the spells that allow saves to non-magic-resistant monsters, the base chance varies from spell to spell. Wand of paralysis (~30%), calm monster (~30%), petrification (~50%), stun ray (~55%), scare monster (~75%).
Spells that are only ignorable with magic resistance include: all elemental bolts, magic missile, death rays, wand of po…
Magic Resistance Testing - Mindcraft
Summary of results: All resistible mindcraft seems to follow the same rules as damaging bolts: 0 magic resist monsters are always affected, and resistant monsters completely ignore some percentage of attacks which is only reduced by character level. Telekinetic powers cannot be resisted, but everything else can.
MR values from the code-dive wiki: great blue wyrm - 50, floating eye - 25, large kobold - 10
- 1 Level 1 confusion blast versus great blue wyrm

Magic Resistance Testing - Bolts (part II)
Summary of results: completely non-magic-resistant creature (never shrugs damaging bolts) has a chance to shrug stun ray, spell efficiency reduces this chance, level has no effect on it. Results for stun ray on magic-resistant creatures are not clear.

Magic Resistance Testing - Bolts (part I)
Summary of results: versus a magic-resistant creature all bolts tested had about the same performance, PC level seems to be the only factor which impacts magic resistance, and killer bugs seem to have some special behavior with regards to shrugging bolts.
Each individual test had 100 trials, every separate group of tests was done with the same character (there is some overlap between groups of tests).

Monster Magic Resistance Research
Monster magic resistance (how often they shrug bolts, ignore resistible effects) would be interesting to document. Code-dived stats are available [1], and while reproducing results at this level of granularity would be really time-consuming, it should be possible to get more general estimates (e.g. zero, low, medium, high) with something on the order of 100 tests per monster.
Other points of interest:
- What factors impact magic resistance. Old patch notes (and the code-dived info) indicate that magic resistance goes down as the PC gains levels [2]. Other potential influences might include: spell efficiency, monster level, certain attributes, and the B/U/C status of a wand.
- How different effects compare in resistibility. Killer bugs seem to be …

Char level influence on mob generation
My current theory is bonus max (0, DL/2-4).
Plan:
- check D1 with various low char levels to find at which point DL2 mobs are generated;
the actual problem there is no set of DL1 monsters generated cleanly:(. Anyway it seems magic number is char level 3 (and I checked my mindcrafter in the AF - that's 27 level (troll) ad DL1 area, and lightning lizards keep annoying me with starting theory it would be DL1+ (27/2-4)-- ~DL10 which is not enough to gen lightning lizard).
I've run char level 8 - 10 through CoC 1 multiple times -- seems 8 are generating DL4 monsters (or DL3 figurine stuff) while 9-10 gen DL5stuff (eyes of destruction and co). If we add anecdote data of molochs on DL1 for lv50 char (need +24 to DL)...
it seems like bonus is more l…

Monster DL testing - basics
Okay, so we can test out laces DL via tp cost and items have massive tables, but not much on monster DL. So I've read some old attempts and sorear vs Ascyron discussions (mostly at danger level talk page).
From what I have read and know
-- scrolls of familiar summoning completely unreliable.
--statues -- some mobs do bot produce statues, vey heavy
-figurines - there is page of Ascyron attempt to wish for these -- looks promising, except it seems to gen by abit higher DL than monster generation (DL1 - gave DL1-2 monsters, DL2 -- DL1-3 monsters). Well, again test ignored B/c figurines, so I've hoped these might do something (nope).

Plural form
I've made this little template after bad-mouthing pluralization once again, feel free to use it:
Races and Classes capitalization
I've accidentally stumbled upon the old discussion we had here — http://ancardia.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:High_Elf
I want to actually go and update all articles using one style. If you have any preferences concerning which one should it be, please post.
Possible variants on classes: 1) Always capitalized 2) Capitalized only in the beginning of a sentence
Possible variants on races:
1) Always capitalized (all words) 2) Always capitalized (first word) 3) Capitalized only in the beginning of a sentence
My votes go to 1/1.
Item stat variation
The thing that was bugging me for a while: We currently have min and max stats listed for some armor and weapons. For one thing, this may mislead someone making an impression of (scroll)smithing limits. For another thing, these modifiers are not true (according to Anilatx' item dumps). There are, for example, plain long swords generated with greater stats, like (+7, 1d8). For armor +- 3 variation for PV/DV is almost certainly not true (values up to +7 and -6 are present). to-hit armor modifiers are even worse, as it seems like there is a limited number of pairs. Example: scanning the whole item dump provides the following possible to-hit modifiers for plate mail:
- (-2, -4) - base
- (-1, -5)
- (-1, -3)
- (+1, -1)
- (-4, -2)
- (-3, -3)

ADOM tiles in pages
Just so you know, guys, I've (somewhat) contacted team ADOM about the possibility to upload monster/item images and add them to wiki. Currently I'm waiting for a reply from Thomas himself on this topic. If we get the permission, I'll do the work with the help of our bot. Hopefully, this may introduce a sense of state-of-the-art source and get more people. If we don't get the permission, there's still tons of stuff to add I guess :D
NPCs vs Monsters
Do we really need NPCs category which includes unique creatures/normally peaceful monsters. What do you think of moving only truly unique guys (+ Kranach and Bart, since they can be wished for) to "Unique monsters" category and everything else to "Monsters"?
Frankly, distinction between NPCs and monsters somewhat escapes me. Sure, some give you quests/items, but that's about it.
Categorization
I've just realized I didn't ask for public opinion on categorizing monster pages. It seemed reasonable to me, but category list sometimes look pretty big now (especially for some things like karmic dragons). Luckily this can be easily removed. Any ideas, opinions?
I'm also thinking about categorizing items. What do you think of the following:
- A subcategory for each DL (struggling to think of a proper name here, though; "DL:x items", "DL x items", something else?)
- A subcategory for each material
- A subcategory for each conferred ability, namely:
- intrinsics
- stat boosts (like "items increasing Toughness")
- special stuff like crits, slaying powers
- A subcategory for each weapon skill (although it's hard to think of a proper category name)
