So there I was, toddling around level 6 and finding it hard to level my characters. Then I thought to myself, level 7 can't be that much harder. I detected an explosive trap with my level 27 samurai, and went for it. 5 rangers and a level 20 mage dead on the floor, but thats ok, I have lots of characters with full raise, and the 5 rangers stood up with nary a scratch. Then came the mage, full raise failed, normal raise failed, RIP. He is buried somewhere down on level 7 with nothing but a bit of loose dirt to mark the spot. 48 hits and a 12 constitution just wasn't enough for the last survivor of my first party :(

Unfortunately I had popped down very briefly some time before and returned with my tail firmly between my legs but a full compliment of survivors.

My mage has been a panic button for me while I level rangers and samurai, useful to take out those oh s*** encounters on level 6 with drains all over the place. I haven't been able to roll a good 8th ranger so now I'm working on a kobold mage in the hope that level 30 is not too difficult to get to up to dungeon level 6.

I am loving the fear factor, I was beginning to think I was too cautious, apparently not. I am suddenly wondering also if a thief is survivable enough to go lower in the dungeon as the samurai seem to be failing chest disarms a little too often for my liking
