Greater Identify is a utility spell in ADOM. It allows the caster to learn about special characteristics of an item in his/her possession.
Casting Greater Identify will prompt the player to choose an item (either worn/wielded or in inventory) and will reveal its stats as well as intrinsics it confers and hidden features. The B/U/C status of the item will also be displayed and remembered by the PC.
It is worth noting that the spell does not always display full information about the item (see below). Only blessed scrolls of great identify will always reveal all properties of items.
Stats[]
The efficiency of Greater Identify seems to be dependent on the PC's Learning. With extremely low values of the attribute it is possible to reveal only DV/PV, to-hit/damage stats and B/U/C status of the item and miss all conferred intrinsics. With averagely low values (~10 Le) half of the intrinsics can typically be missed. With higher than average values (20+) Greater Identify starts to reliably display all information. It is unknown to what extent spell efficiency affects the results.
Extra
