I had a similar problem with weapons today. I had a dagger equipped and I picked up a knife, which apparently equipped itself by magic somehow when I picked it up, without unequipping the dagger. When I attacked monsters, the damage was calculated with the knife bonus, not the dagger bonus. Also, th...

Heh, fair enough. I guess I'm still kinda poking around and trying to understand what's going on, so. On that topic, I wandered around this hill at the north end of the snow village and discovered there's a cave entrance at the back of it. But the cave only seems to have just the one room -- there's...

Hm. Levelling does proceed somewhat faster now that I'm in a more sensible area.

It still seems like ...

As long as I'm whining noobily... Is there any way I can avoid getting sent all the way back to Tulimshar if I die in the batcave? It's kind of a long way to walk...

So every time I walk in there I die pretty fast. That combined with the lack of useful ...

I keep seeing people talking about the bat cave, but I can't find it. If I go east or west from town, or down into that cave by the miner there's monsters that are way too nasty for me. If I try to go north from the town the path seems to be blocked by something invisible, or, at least, I can't seem...

I don't mean to be a baby about this, and it's possible I'm doing something very very wrong, but I'm level 22 now and I've been playing for hours, and the only things I can reasonably fight are the monsters in Tulimshar, the maggots and basic scorpions and fire goblins. I can also fight a green slim...
