Melee weapon suffixes

Suffix [of x]	Effect	Greater ID	Notes
corruption	Corrupts opponent	It causes corruption in addition to wounds.	Scythe of corruption should not be confused with Moon Sickle
damnation	Dooms PC	Wearing it makes you doomed.	Easy to remove source of dooming
defense	+6 DV using defensive or lower tactics	It grants a +6 DV bonus when fighting defensively, very defensively or cowardly.	Halberds of defense are a separate type of weapon
devastation	+4 damage dice, +6 damage	No special line, only the stats are listed as normal	One of the most desired suffixes, as the damage increase is very high. Two-handed eternium weapons with this suffix can rival the strongest Artifacts in terms of raw power.
fumbling	Abuses Dexterity while wielded	It slowly drains your dexterity.
hunting	Increases chance of corpse generation	It increases the chance for slain enemies to remain as a corpse.	Whether it only works on animals like the longbow of hunting (which is a separate item) or any monster is not clear
lightning	+2d6 lightning damage	It causes +2d6 lightning damage on a successful hit.	To be "a successful hit" the regular damage must be enough to pass the target's PV, and then the elemental damage triggers
mayhem	+2 damage dice, +6 damage	No special line, only the stats are listed as normal
might	+2 Strength, +2 Toughness	It grants a +2 bonus to Strength and Toughness
penetration	Bypasses monsters PV	It ignores all the protection of your opponents.	Does not cause extra messages like a Phase dagger; Heir gift for Thieves
power	+20% power points	It increases your magical powers by 20%.	Staves of power are different item, existence on other weapons questionable
slaughtering	+1 damage die, +2 to dice value	Its damage die has been increased by +2 and it causes one extra die of damage when hitting an opponent.	Prior to v. 1.2.0, Greater Identify mistakenly described the modification as 2 extra damage dice and +1 to dice value
surrendering	Abuses Willpower while wielded	It slowly drains your willpower.
the eagle	+5 speed, +4 Perception	It grants a +4 bonus to Perception and a +5 bonus to speed.	Recommended for something like crossing dwarven halls, if seeing farther and running faster is more important than combat power.
the sun	Double damage to undead	It causes double damage against undead.	Very useful in places where a lot of undead are encountered, such as the graveyards; bless for additional 1.5x damage increase; mace of the sun is the Heir gift for Priests
the void	Occasionally makes enemies flee	No special line	When constantly used, annoying as you have to chase down the monsters to get XP and loot. In ASCII mode appears as black weapon on the floor. Angers shopkeepers. Useful for Archers.
thunder	Might stun opponent	It hits with such might that targets might be stunned
vampirism	Drains Hit points and causes some alignment drop on successful hits	It drains the life force of your opponents and transfers it to you.	Seems to restore 1 to 7 HP.
weakness	Abuses Strength while wielded	It slowly drains your strength.
