Only by a paladin (or cleric), and I don't think they can tackle. Its no use to a warrior.

You would have to check the actual CMans they can use to see which ones would need blessed/sanctified armor.

Blessed armor can be used to allow quite a few warrior CMans on undead.

Also, don't forget that some of the messages have dual meanings depending on whether the item is armor or a weapon etc, and much of that is pretty old messaging. When in doubt, have a bard sing to the item. I don't have my chart with me or I'd be able to tell you if there's a secondary meaning for that message. I'll look when I get home.

Big duh to me for eonake, sanctified being useful for a warrior. I figured you folks are the masters of armory and weaponry, so figured this was the best folder to ask in.

Just a note Kerl, except for the messaging for magical items and the amount of charges in them vs what the same note means for armor, shields or weapons, there is no duel messaging to the AI crystal for any items that I see on my chart.

The examples are:

Deep bass tone means Damage weighted (armor/weapon) and 1 charge in a magical item.
Low resonant tone means Crit weighted (armor/weapon) and 2 charges in a magical item.
Low mellow tone means a Defender weapon and 3-4 charges in a magical item.
Clear even tone means nothing on armory, but 5-8 charges in a magical item
Pure high tone means Voln blessed and 9-16 charges in a magical item.
High ringing tone means nothing on armory, but 17-32 charges in a magical item.
Shrill piercing means Elemental crits on weaponry (Not positive for armor) and Over 32 charges in a magical item.
A silver nimbus is Holy/Sanctifed/Eonake for weapon, shield and armor only.
A shadow shows up (not sure the exact wording) for a cursed item.

And that's all the tones the AI gives off.

Then again, I don't have any ranger padded vs the elements or reactive flaring armor to test, let alone TD enhancive shield or armor. Maybe the AI crystal would give off a double meaning tone in those cases, if any tone at all. I should check my spiked greaves and see if the AI crystal gives off a tone for those.

I just learned that if the magical ability is via a script added to the item(s), that neither the AI crystal nor Bard song will give off any messaging at all, like with my temporary Banshee flaring shield.

I did confirm the silver nimbus via Bard song. It is indeed sanctified armor and apparently good for only Clerics or Paladins, not Warriors. Der!

The low mellow tone for a defender weapon indicates a TD boost when it appears on a shield or armour.

>I checked my spiked greaves, nothing special from the AI crystal regarding spikes.

Why would you need the AI crystal to see if something had spikes?

I'm not sure how well this syncs with what you have, but here's my list of AI crystal signals:

FOR WEAPONS:

silver nimbus: blessed or holy
pure high note: voln or pure-potion blessed
Shrill piercing note: elemental crits
low mellow note: defender weapon
low resonant tone: crit weighted
deep bass tone: damage weighted
shadow: cursed
Red beam: +1-+5
Orange beam: +6 to +10
Yellow beam: +11 to +15
Green beam: +16 to +20
Blue beam: +21 to +25
Indigo beam: +26 to +30
Violet beam: +31 and above

FOR ARMOR AND SHIELDS:

low mellow note: TD enhancing
deep bass tone: damage padded
shrill piercing note: enchanted by a wizard
shadow: cursed
Colored beams are the same as for weapons


ITEMS:

Golden scintillating light: imbeddable
Shrill piercing note: above 32 charges remaining
High ringing note: 17-32 charges remaining
Pure high note: 9-16 charges remaining
Clear even note: 5-8 charges remaining
Low mellow note: 3-4 charges remaining
Low resonant note: 2 charges remaining
Deep bass note: 1 charges remaining

Oh maybe because, 1) I'm not a bard and 2) some spiked armor won't show it when looked at because they have special scripts to them.

Try using INSPECT to check for spikes. I believe this is a reliable way to tell.

>inspect my pav

Your careful inspection of a spiked eonake scaled pavis allows you to conclude that it is a medium shield that protects the bearer if carried in the left hand. You also notice that it is spiked.

Oof, worked. It shows as spiked.

Not sure why I thought these were uninspectable, like my color changing greave set. These were able to be inspected and it showed the spikes.

Thanks Robert.
