  • potion
  • scroll
  • staff
  • treasure
  • typearmor
  • wand
  • weapon

Configure the display

  • count shows total number of items that fit the switch criteria
  • insult shows item keywords and uuids
  • multi gives a complete identify of the first 10 items found
  • wearable shows only items that are currently able to be worn. This factors in strength requirements for shields and weapons.
  • weight (shows items in order from heaviest to lightest

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.
