Line 30:
** Wielding something made of [[Depleted Phlebotinum Shells|a material that harms your character]] while wearing gloves will not damage them, as well as wearing body armor made of such material while wearing a shirt.
*** If playing as an elf, your starting inventory of elven weapons and any other iron items will be copper instead of [[Cold Iron]]. Additionally, some items' base materials have been tweaked to make certain artifacts not hate elves.<ref>Specifically, runeswords, athames, amulets, and most non-iron and non-steel rings are now metal instead, as are artifact versions of the same.</ref>
** [[Boss in Mook Clothing|Minesflayers]] (mind flayers that [[Beef Gate|generated out-of-depth in the Gnomish Mines]] due to monster creation rules) are no longer as hassle, since they are now <code>U</code> (aberrations), not <code>h</code> (humanoids). Among other things, this allows dwarven players to safely kill them with a read scroll of genocide.<ref>
** Similarly, [[Our Elves Are Better|elves]] now occupy the <code>Q</code> glpyh (which stands for [[The Lord of the Rings (Literature)|Quendi]]), making them safe to genocide for non-elven players;<ref>In vanilla NetHack, elves are <code>@</code> instead, and entering that glyph as a genocide target [[Too Dumb to Live|will genocide the player]].</ref> [[Punny Name|quantum mechanics and genetic engineers]] are now considered aberrations (<code>U</code>) instead.
** [[Hollywood Chameleons|Chameleons]] and other [[Voluntary Shapeshifter]]s that roll "random monster" for their next form when shapeshifting at random will no longer turn into [[Beef Gate|out-of-difficulty forms]]. Sandestins or [[doppelganger]]s that roll "nasty" or [[Mirror Mook|"player monster"]] can still do so regardless of difficulty (at which point you may have ''other'' problems if you encounter either of them).
