== Description ==
 
 
 
Divining for water allows the detection of water sources beneath the surface using a [[pendulum]].  No skills seem to be required.
 
 
 
== Method ==
 
 
 
Stand on a tile and right-click the pendulum in your inventory, then select use.  One of the outcomes below will result depending on how far you are from water.  Placing a [[fountain (container)|fountain]] on the spot where water is detected will result in the fountain being filled automatically.  With a low quality pendulum, the pendulum will "seem dead" frequently on tiles where it should detect the presence of water nearby.  Higher quality pendulums will be more accurate for detecting water.
 
 
 
== Outcomes ==
 
 
 
The outcomes are in order of rising magnitude.  Those at the end of the list indicate water is closer than those at the beginning.  Please note that with a lower quality pendulum, the chance that a false negative reading will occur can be as often as 25%.
 
 
 
; The pendulum seems dead. : There is no water nearby (or a false-negative)
 
; You think you detect some faint tugs in the pendulum. : There is water nearby
 
; The pendulum is starting to move, indicating a flow of energy somewhere near. : There is water closer
 
; The pendulum is swinging in a circle, there is probably a water source in the ground nearby. : There is water very close
 
; The pendulum swings back and forth! You are close to a water source! : You are within approximately one tile of water
 
; The pendulum swings frantically! There is something here! : You are standing on a water source
