+* Statue traps' summoned monsters should be generated with an increased difficulty. +5 was proposed for this, but this may be too high.
 * Falling rock traps can dump multiple rocks onto you at once, up to (depth/4). Damage is taken for each rock. If a trap would drop 4 or more rocks on you, it may instead drop (rocks/4) boulders on your head instead. Helms should be less effective at reducing damage from falling rocks, and almost useless at reducing damage from falling houlders.
 * Pits get deeper, which makes them deal more damage, might cause [[wounded legs]] with a chance that increases with depth, and take longer to escape from (or are so deep you can't climb out at all).

 * Insects returning to the hive: bees periodically path back to their hive unless they're actively chasing or combatting something. Ants do this too, and even pick up and bring back food items.
 * Swarming AI (bees and possibly other insects): before moving, they calculate if they can see any others of the same monster, and if so, they are disincentivized for moving into a space where they would lose sight of all such monsters. This should keep swarms actually cohesive but still able to move along corridors and pursue the player.

+* Belts themselves could be armor or tools, but probably armor. They mainly serve to hold items for quick access. It's not defined whether they are intended to hold an indefinite number of items like any container, or a limited amount. The only problem with making them armor is that they would by default be enchantable for more AC; belts should probably not be enchantable. If it makes more sense that several magical belts would hold charges, tools would be the appropriate class.
 * Items carried in a belt weigh nothing and are mostly or totally protected from destruction, and using them doesn't take the action it usually takes to get an item out of a bag.
 * Types of belts could be scroll-holding, potion-holding, wand-holding, ammo-holding (with a possible "endless quiver" item or artifact), gem-holding (to get partial resistances from certain gems), chastity (providing immunity to foocubi seduction) or no special powers but some moderate AC.
