I'm on D7 of the CoC and cannot for the life of me find the stairs. Anybody have any advice? I'm trying to make my way around all the edges of the map doing w5 but so far no luck... First post too, how exciting |

Don't waste (game)time on w5, 'k'ick all the wall squares you can (except for corners). Real walls give the message "you hurt your leg". Hidden doors and undiggable walls give "you really hurt your leg". Sometimes there's a small room generated in a place you'd never expect to find it. When you find a hidden door, then use w5. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks.

Obviously you should look out for empty spaces, but one important thing to remember is that when a dungeon is generated it extends to all sides of the screen. So if you don't have a room against each of the four sides of the screen then the missing room will be on the side of the screen that's missing this (and thus you can concentrate your efforts there). One thing to try if you're desperate is using a wand of trap creation in the right spot to make a teleportation trap, and keep triggering it till you wind up in the lucky spot. Waldenbrook, the dwarven shopkeeper, mumbles: "I'd offer 9 gold pieces for yer dwarven child corpse." |

I think it's better to use w + s, not w + 5. If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

Right, I typed w5 because 5 is too similar to s, and I'm sleep deprived due to some insomnia (damn those tests! Collage ain't fun anymore :( ) A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |
