Climbing boots
From Discworld MUD Wiki
Climbing boots are leather boots which, when worn, improve the wearer's climbing skill.
They weigh 2 lb precisely, and cannot be worn with either climbing shoes or crampons.
[edit] Effects
Wearing climbing objects changes several bonuses, but the amount of the changes seem to vary based on stats.
Climbing shoes provide the following boosts and penalties to a player's climbing bonuses when worn:
| Skill | Change type | Bonus change |
|---|---|---|
| adventuring.movement.climbing.tree | raise | 8 + floor( (dexterity + strength)/2 ) |
| adventuring.movement.climbing.rock | raise | 25 + floor( (dexterity + strength)/2 ) |
| covert.stealth.inside | drop | floor(dexterity / 3) - 25 |
| covert.stealth.outside | drop | floor(dexterity / 3) - 25 |
| covert.hiding.person | drop | floor(dexterity / 3) - 25 |
The stats used to calculate the bonus changes are capped by your unmodified stats, i.e. only overall negative stat effects are taken into account.
[edit] Acquisition
Climbing boots can be bought from Joshua's Climbing Shop in Slice.
