−	~~How do i send a message to another player?~~

−	~~== vlads tower ==~~
−
−	~~is the entrance to vlads tower under the big square i can't enter or one of the doors around it?~~
−
−	:The entrance to Vlad's Tower is simply an extra up-stairs on a random level between 34 and 42. If you're talking about the Wizard's tower, however, you need to keep going down past all the large squares you can't enter until you see a little island and moat in the middle of the level. There will be two of them (on two different levels) - one is a fake entrance, the other is real. The real one has a teleport trap in the middle. Which takes you inside the large squares that you couldn't previously enter.
−
−	~~== elemental planes ==~~
−
−	I'm never able to make it past the elemental planes. What always happens is archons and titans keep summoning more of each other until the entire level is filled with them. Wearing a ring of conflict doesn't seem to be enough to thin their numbers, unfortunately. What am I supposed to do? How do you deal with the hordes of archons? I'm wondering - perhaps I'm genociding too many classes of monsters and thus, their summon spells summon more of each other? Maybe I should pursue a more minimalist genociding strategy?
−
−	:The planes are different than any other part of the game - you should be racing through them as fast as possible, be in and out long before anything has a chance to summon and fill the level with anything. If there are some Titans/Archons in your way, shoot them with a wand of teleport to clear a path then keep running. Standing around trying to fight the Titans/Archons or trying to thin the herd with conflict is basically a guaranteed way to lose unless your character is mega-pimped.
−
−	~~== Ascending without doing the wizard quest ==~~
−
−	I accidently attacked the Wizard Quest NPC and got expelled. The game was going great until then and I have pretty much all the items needed to ascend.. Is it still worth trying to pursure the great ascension without the eye?
−
−	~~:You can definitely ascend without the Eye, but you might have a hard time without the [[Bell of Opening]]. --[[User:Andronikus\|Andronikus]] 13:28, 25 September 2008 (UTC)~~

−	:#See the entry on the [[bones]] page for what the file names are for the save files. Just navigate to the [[sandbox]] directory and delete the appropriate file. Information on how to interact with them is on the [[explore mode]] page
−	:#See [[taming]] for a full description, but the crib notes are: Harps, food and spellbook of charm monster are your friends in different situations. You can pacify any unicorn with a gem, however taming them (making them a pet) requires charm monster. Information with how to interact with them is on the [[pet]] or [[tame]] pages
