Equipment can enhance nearly every aspect of gameplay here on Aardwolf. For example: equipment is very helpful in maximizing the damage you do and in minimizing the damage you receive in battle. Equipment can affect your stats and resistances as well as damroll and hitroll.
Take a look at "help stats", "help resists", 'help damroll" and "help hitroll" in game.
The stats and resists that are important to you are dependent upon your race, class and style of play.
"help <your_class>", "raceinfo <your_race>"
When you come across equipment, you can identify it by typing "ID <equipment>". The equipment must be in your inventory for this to be effective. This command gives you the basic stats of a piece of equipment. Other methods of finding out about equipment are lore, object read, identify (skill) and there is an Identifier shop in Aylor, Hesters Whoswhatzit. To see if you will have the skill, type "showskill <skill /spell>". This will tell you what classes gain the spell or skill and at what level.
