webs

[wobbly]

Are there any other factors besides str & free action for escaping webs? My str 0 character took 39 turns to get out, which would of been fatal if the spider was still around (good old horn of terror). Any ways of increasing the odds? or is it a straight str check?

Other freedom effects work as well. Song or staff.

I believe spider bane, which of course nobody ever takes, also helps. (It also helps to find webs.)

Is that even in the manual?

I just confirmed in source this is true -- it's new to me!

I also discovered that you can get rid of your own glyphs of warding by disarming them!

(Seriously though - When are we going to start getting a list of secret techs somewhere? Maybe make a topic for it? Problem is I can't start one because I don't remember any of mine, hah)

I have played Sil only a very few times, but I always enjoy reading about roguelike strategy and, better yet, secret tech strategery.

Ok then, will do.
