Firstly thanks for the level 5 suggestions. As it turned out the
turnaround time (about two days) between posting a query and getting
replies had allowed me to do those bits anyway on my own.
Anyway I've moved onto level 8 or `the arena' as it's called and have
concluded the level of difficulty has jumped an order of magnitude.
The place is huge and the chances of being taken out by the fireball
throwing machine seem a bit high. I know I can use a fireshield spell
and I've found the Staff of Hanah which has its own fireshield but
unfortunately I've been so slow the thing runs out of fireshield. Does
it recuperate or does it only last a few goes ?
Anyway, I presume there is a means of switching these sodding fireballs
off or is there ?
I'm told there is very very long corridor accessed by a secret door/room
but I can't find the button/pressure pad for it. Can anyone give me some
directions to this button from say the entry staircase from the Tomb of
the Firestaff ?
Thanks for any help.
