Wiz7: Cursed items?

[Wayne O. Miller FFR]

Hi ho,

What is the harm in using a cursed item in Wizardry 7? I know that
they can't be un-equipped without using a remove curse spell, but do they
cause problems while in use? I just equipped some cursed jewelry that
reduced armor class by -2, which is good. So what if I can't take it off?
Do I loose hit points, or vitality or something bad?

Regards,
Wayne

In article <31tqra$2...@news.arc.nasa.gov>,

Some items will cause you to lose hitpoints; check it with an
identify spell and it will tell you. If it is a powerful item
you will have to use a high level identify spell. Many of the
cursed items are just fine though; just use a remove curse
spell if you want to trade them around your party.

Cheers,
Rob

No, nothing bad, but if you find a better armour you'll have to
"remove curse" first to be able to change to the better one.
