How can I avoid damage in the hallway with the big floor spike trap?
  • 1 of 4: If you're traveling east down the hallway (which you will be if you're going from the entrance area to the big central chasm), it can be a problem.
  • 2 of 4: If your Perception is high enough, you'll see a trapped band of flooring in the middle of the hallway.
  • 3 of 4: Run down the hallway, jump that patch of floor, and keep running.
  • 4 of 4: That should work, especially if you have the Fleet Foot spell in effect.
