~Survival Tips:

~1) The deeper into the dungeon you go,  the more dangerous  the monsters become.
     However, you get far more experience for killing powerful monsters. A fifth
     level troll may be worth 10 or 15 first level skeletons.

~2) Make your expeditions short at first. Don't stay down until you have only one
     health point, as it is not always so easy to get back out of the dungeon.

~3) Wizards  are much more difficult to play than fighters.  However,  high level
     wizards are more powerful than high level fighters can ever be. It's almost
     impossible to reach the Fountain of Youth on level 70 with a fighter.

~4) If you  are a  fighter,  buy a  mace as soon as  possible. Money will be very
     tight until you become 7'th level or so.

~5) The Flea Bag Inn is nice and cheap, but look at the price of a cure disease.

~6) Armored creatures like ants,  ticks,  and fighters,  are more dificult to hit
     than other creatures. You may want to avoid them when you see them down the
     corridor.

~7) Monsters  that chase  you around the  dungeon do not have as much treasure as
     the monstershe mat stand their ground and wait for you to attack.

~8) Undead monstershgive a lot of extra experience. However, fighters may find it
     almost impossible to kill these creatures.

~9) Some treasure is not valuable, and will simply weigh you down.  The following
     is a list of the exchange rate for coins (all treasure must be cashed in at
     the bank):

~100 COPPER PIECES = 1 JEWEL PIECE
~10  SILVER PIECES = 1 JEWEL PIECE
~2    IVORY PIECES = 1 JEWEL PIECE
~1     GOLD PIECE  = 1 JEWEL PIECE
~1 PLATINUM PIECE  = 6 JEWEL PIECES
~1  JEWELRY PIECE  = 1 JEWEL PIECE    (Amazing!)

~10) Try to take  advantage  of all of the shops and things that are in the town.
     They are all important to the survival of your character.
