I don't want to give too much away... suffice it to say that you must hunt the Secret Room on level ten to find a special item that will show you the way to level eleven.

while your crew may suffice to best the final boss, I am not certain that you will have the party stamina to find that encounter. ie once you are on eleven, there is a lot of running to do to find the boss, and you use up a lot of spells. I have never left the level before finding the boss, but I assume if you do so, you must start over by hunting the SR on ten again. Perhaps someone else can weigh in here.... if you leave can you return? or do you have to begin again from scratch?

Your suspicions are correct. If you are forced to withdraw from level 11, you will need to start over.

Thanks, Mithril. I have tried to hunt for the secret room in 10, but haven't found it yet. Maybe there is a item to help? The secret room finding gems that I have found so far only extend to level six.

I suppose there is some way to use an item, but I have never done so. Try looking at it like this:

I am going to level 10 to put some levels on my crew.
I am going to start in this spot, and I am going to step on every space of every room and run every hallway space on the map unless it contains a pit, teleporter or stairs. When it is time to return to the city, I am going to mark down where I stopped, so when I return to building on level 10 I can start from that spot and continue on. Eventually, I will find the Secret Room, and most likely you will be given the needed item. Then when you get ready to try level 11, guess what??? You are going to do the same technique down there... because to find the big baddie-- he is hiding in the level 11 version of a secret room. huh.

I just had another thought. If level 11 is one level deeper than 10, is the concentration of Titans and Time Lord bigger, so it's easier to level? Or is it the same as level ten?

Thanks, Paladin
