You've found a cave! ...Sort of.[Nevermind]
« on: April 06, 2011, 08:49:23 pm »

So I found a cave. I think. It told me I did, and there was one there on the travel map. But I cannot find it. The legend in the upper left leads to this small mountain thing, but no cave entrance anywhere. Is there a way to find this elusive cave?

Nevermind. I fell down the hill and apparently right into the cave. Well hidden, these things are.

Yeah, it will often take some elusive slope hopping until you actually find the path inside.

Okay so, this cave lead waaay down. ''You have found an expansive cavern deep underground.''

So far I've had to set several trees on fire, and this cave is very empty minus some troglodytes. Should I stay down here, or is a cave not worth it?

I didn't even know doing that was possible in adventure mode. What do I? I'm scared. ;_;

You should go and find the adamantine sword surrounded by undeads and pull it out.

I think we actually pulled that on SpiralDimentia one time before... and it worked. (maybe I'm remembering wrong though)

No you're right. 8 pages of me squealing like a girl, barricading myself in, then setting down the barricade and welcoming the fight... then losing gloriously. lol

Also, I found a group of bat people. They are friendly... but I am suspicious.

That was in dwarf mode, no? I doubt he'll suspect anything since it's different mode.

This is the thread.

And no, I've learned to leave natural adamantine weapons where they are, they serve a much better purpose as decoration. lol

There was always the dude who grinded up all his character's attributes and skills, pulled the sword and used it to slaughter hundreds of demons.

But I wouldn't recommend it.

The last several times I found curious underground structures in Adventurer mode (back in 0.31.12, though), there were no undead creatures guarding them, and when I took the adamantine weapons I was able to sneak away safely.

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
