See that rune to the north? You may have to wait a few seconds to see it. Don't step on it; it might hurt you! f you have the find traps and disarm traps skills mentioned earlier, you can step NEXT to it and attempt to find and disarm it. Since it's at the end of the hallway, you might decide it's not worth the risk, since there's nothing beyond it, but it's good to increase your experience in those skills whenever possible.

Remember: to search for traps, press 'f' (or type 'use_skill find traps), and to attempt to disarm any traps you find, press 'd' (or type 'use_skill disarm traps). Remember: to search for traps, press 's' (or type 'use_skill find traps), and to attempt to disarm any traps you find, press 'd' (or type 'use_skill disarm traps).
Sometimes you may need to press 's' or 'd' many times (10-30 times!) before your character finally finds the traps and then disarms it. If your Messages window (here) doesn't say you spotted the trap, or disarmed it (or set it off accidentally) then keep trying 's' and 'd' a bit more.

How did you do? Watch your hit points (HP) closely during battle. If they get too low, you can always retreat and come back. Hit points gradually regenerate over time, so if you took damage, wait until your HP is back to the maximum before moving on. Eating food speeds up HP regeneration, so you may want to eat this food now. How did you do? Watch your hit points (HP) / Health closely during battle.

By the way, it's a good idea to always check for traps before trying to open a door. Do this with the command ('use_skill find traps), which is often bound to the 'f' key. If you find a trap, you can try to disarm it with ('use_skill disarm traps). You can only find and disable traps if you have those skills.

Some doors will open when you walk up to them, then close after a moment. Be careful not to get crushed by standing in the doorway too long! Some doors will open when you walk up to them, then close after a moment. Be careful not to get crushed by standing in the doorway too long!

Stop and take a look at your inventory for a moment. If you started the game with any armor or a hand-to-hand weapon like a sword, you probably should ready them now. (In most clients you do this by double-clicking.) Don't make the mistake of many new players, and run into your first monsters naked and empty-handed. :-) Stop and take a look at your inventory for a moment. If you started the game with any armor or a hand-to-hand weapon like a sword, you probably should ready them now. (In most clients you do this by middle-clicking the mouse. Or also try holding the SHIFT key and then right-click mouuse.) Don't make the mistake of many new players, and run into your first monsters naked and empty-handed. :-)
You can also try the long-form of the commands like: 'apply sword OR 'apply chainmail
Using the 'apply command multiple times on the same item will toggle between "readied" and "unreadied".
