Is there a way to know whether an item will be enchanted or cursed by an anvil of Krong? At first it happened to me when I used the same item on three different anvils. Recently it has also happened on the second anvil. Is there a rule for this? Or is it just random chance whenever you use it? |

No, it's not tied to the number of times you've used a particular item on the anvil. There's a random chance each time you drop an item, regardless of what happened to that item previously. I've had things cursed the first time I've dropped them, for instance. The Dredmor wiki says that it's 2/7 chance of a curse, and a 5/7 chance of a blessing. I'm always torn between using a really good item on it, in the hopes that it gets better, or using a kind of "meh" item in the hopes that it either becomes good or destroying it won't matter. Frequently what I'll do is try to use something that I have a duplicate of, or at least a backup for that slot. That way if it gets better, it's a win, and if it gets worse, oh well, I've got a backup. |

I'd take "This does not apply to the character's first use of an Anvil of Krong, which will never result in a curse." to mean the first time a new character uses any anvil, not each anvil. So the very first time you use any anvil, you're safe. After that, there's a risk of cursing |
