Tips
  • The Cloak of Evasion increases the wearer's evasion rate against physical attacks.
  • The Snooze Stick can be used in battle to cast the Snooze spell, which can put enemies to sleep.
  • By this point, your Hero should have the Evac spell, allowing for a quick escape from the dungeon. If not, backtrack the way you came.
