Switches added in 2016

In 2016 the search systems was reworked and a number of new switches were added including:-

  • +consumable - for consumable objects such as scrolls, potions, poisons, wands etc
  • +type <type> - such as weapon types
  • +quality <quality> - for randoms such as wellmade, mastercraft2, exceptional
  • +composite <composite type> - for items with a particular composite type or higher such as relic, antique, epic, remarkable or exceptional
  • +spellname <spell> - for items with spells attached such as grenades, potions, scrolls, spellbooks, staves and wands, and also for spell components affinity.
  • +charges - for items with spell charges such as wands
  • +permspell <spell> - for items with perm spell attachements

Examples

  • list search -coldsave -5 - returns items with 25% cold saves or higher
  • list search +firesave +1 - returns items with negative 5% fire saves or lower
  • storage search +composite test - returns all items as there is no such composite as test.
  • storage search +composite epic - returns items that are epic
  • storage search +composite exceptional - returns items that are exception or better (exception+epic items).
  • l in vor -spellcomp +spellname ball - returns a spider egg which is a spell component that has affinty for lightning spells.
  • l in vor +permspell haste - returns Boots of speed which are a piece of equipment with the perm spell haste attached.
  • list search -dtype stab - returns items with damage type: stab

Notes

  • Look in <container> supports only a limited range of switches.
  • Saves are negative and each point is 5% of save e.g. -5 equals 25% save
  • For manaregen each point is 0.5 of regen e.g. 5 equals 2.5 regen.
  • The remarkable, exceptional and antique flags do not actually search for the remarkable, exceptional or antique flags on an item. They use the item's actual composite ranking, so, for example, a scepter of the sorcerer king shows up on a search for -antique even though it does not have the antique flag.
  • the wieldable flag shows all items you can wield, even if they are not weapons.
