One trick, which I did not use, is to go down the ladder, kill one or two, and retreat back up the ladder to heal before trying again.

      To answer the second half of your question, you need one to get the other and it only works one way. If you get the other first, one becomes very difficult (but not impossible) to get. Use a little deductive reasoning here. That's about as close as I can get without giving it all away. Enjoy your game. ~RD

      Ah, yes. I can beat that pretty early, with my special trick. You need to be a conjourer. Get 2-4 magic potions, and several health potions. Go down. Immedietly hit magic. Select magical arrows and hit cast. Immedietly hit magic again. Repeat. After a while, refuel. This wouldn't work in Diablo, but since everything pauses on a dialog in PoG, this works pretty well.

      I prefer portal. Takes a while to use, but you can teleport to any square in the game. The 'randomness' is where on the square you appear. When I read it the first time, I thought it was just like the blink spell-- but it's SO much more useful.

      And he ran about with his wand / As if we really care
      He says he killed some old hag / And we guess it could be true
      If Lockhart came after us / We’d choke to death laughing, too.

    • When I tried, the computer kept crashing, an extra incentive to get the coordinates right quickly. I have gotten it both ways but never remember the correct coordinates for more than two minutes. Hee Hee. Then I start all over again.

    • Why is it that if you choose the wrong coordinates it crashes anyway? Is all of that other area not acctually map or something?

      Maps have borders. If you go outside of the borders Coldstone isn't real happy. Sometimes it handles it, sometimes it crashes.
