I'm fine with deathtrap rooms, so long as there are adequate clues that would enable you to "see one coming" if you were sufficiently alert. If I'm not in brief mode, I'm using "look" both directionally and at objects in rooms, and I'm scanning... I shouldn't get caught off guard too often.

Thus far, every deathtrap room I've "found" falls into that category. As with most exploring experiences, you take a beating, but come out a wiser man. This seems to be generally true of finding "secret stuff" for yourself... the more you do it, the better you get at finding the next one.

Yeah...real fare when they put agro mobs right outside the room too, so when you flee...BAM! you = dead. n/t TSM 15:13:02 9/25/2000 (0)
Very True. But I'm an idiot and will walk in just to see anyways. n/t Astillian 14:20:05 9/25/2000 (0)
