Chains is an upgraded item.

Makes your curse incurable, but drastically increases rescue luck while you have it. Use at your own risk!

Converts the current curse into a Shackled Curse, making it incurable. Curses received from quests can overwrite Shackled Curses as normal.[1]

Upon rescuing, if the player has a luck of 2 or higher, a Shackled Curse removes 1 point of luck.[2] Afterwards, it adds 3 points of luck, or 2 points if it's weakened.[3][4]

History[edit | edit source]
