Ok I can only play DM a couple hours each weekend and so
I try to rush it.
I've been using the right hand rule to get through the mazes
since I dont have time to map.
The only major hang up I had was with the corbumite
cause I use zokathras to mark my path and I thought the
corbumite was one of my dropped markers.
In any case Ive rushed through most levels but I have a couple
,no many, questions.
These may be spoilers so delete now or whatever...

ok since my party is composed of 4 = master magicians nothing
much has been a problem until the latest level which has
had these knights that are hard as hell to kill. Ive killed 3
so far but by running and using freeze boxes and smashing them
in doors and using everything I had (BTW the blue slimes
1 level up were no fun either): is there some easy way to kill
these guys? Also there must be a skeleton key for this level
but since a spider comes ever 2 seconds I cant even look around.
But I ddd forge ahead to the next level and I have what I think
is the last ra key, the master key, and a ruby key that i
think I should have spent a couple levels ago. IAC, I ran
ahead to the next level and found myself in hell where
the lesser devils are no problem but I can do nothing
to the big black dude but run and his [her?] shots
really hurt. IAC, Id like some policy suggestions and
the answers to the small questions to follow.
Ive got weapons out the waaazooo but while they seem better as
i got deeper i'm not sure anythings much stonger than the ax
and nothing but the vorpal blades seems to kill immaterial
bad guys, e.g. what are morning stars good for?
Should I have kept the corbumite? I havent found much food lately
..did I miss a	lot {some in the lockers and here and there
but no rats or worms or screamers}?
When I had to pick a door at the end of the snake way was
there anyway to take the other path too?
THE BIG QUESTION can I finish given what ive told you?
