<you float over the line eater>
In my many games of hack I have found many uses of levitation:.
To name a few:
to avoid traps (pits, posion darts, bear traps, trap doors, etc)
this is especially useful if you are currently under the effects of
a potion (such as 'speed' or invisibility and you don't want
to get delayed by a trap (which will cut down the usefulness)
another use of this is to float over traps and lure monsters
into them
to avoid mishaps:
whwn wielding a basilisk corpse it means death (as i found out)
to stumble upon at pit or trap door.
to avoid the pools:
when on level ~20 you will encounter a room full of pools
containing eels. By levitating you can avoid the pools and
(if they are empty) not drown.
to avoid basilisk corpses:
after you kill a basilisk or two you can wear a ring of levitation
to avoid accidentily touching the corpses (which occurs quite
frequently if you teleport and/or have a dog.
to examine treasure rooms:
when I first go into a shop I like to see everything before I pick
it up. while i can m<dir> I perfer to wear the ring or quaff the
potion andnormal move over a likely (interesting) treasure.
Then I use the colon ':' command to see what is on the floor.
(You do know about the colon command - I discovered it accidently
since it is not in the help file)
