I'm a gnome wizard and I have a wish. Normally, this is when I'd ask for a silver or gray DSM, but I already have reflection and magic resistance from other sources, and the other DSMs seem more interesting now, with two extrinsics.

I considered Blue for the shock resistance, to protect my wands and rings, however, I'm already very fast (potion of speed + boots of speed).

Then I considered Black for the disintegration resistance, but that will get covered as soon as I find a black dragon.

Then I considered White for the slow digestion, which would free a ring slot basically, but I already have cold resistance.

All this considered, the only one that comes to mind is... Gold DSM (lol?) for the free light source + hallucination resistance (which would allow me to eat certain corpses unimpeded). Though it'd be mostly for the light source. As a wizard, it's a big advantage to see what's ahead beforehand.

What do you guys think about this choice? Would you choose any other armor?

I don't recall ever seeing this message in 3.6. No idea what it means. This was as a gnome wizard. When I checked my inventory, I didn't notice anything different or newly identified items.

I'm not sure where to report bugs, so I'll post it here. I play on the Windows version (with the tile sets). I'm noticing on 5.0 some items display as ASCII when I pick them up or when I see them from distance. Picking them or getting closer changes it to the correct graphic. I didn't have this issue on 3.6. Any other W users experiencing the same?
