Escaping from crowds

Potions of speed can save your life in case you are chased by monsters and your recall doesn't seem to want to happen

I usually find that drinking !spd earlier in a battle will give enough of a tactical advantage that I rarely need to teleport or recall at all; At least earlier in the game, anyway. Summoning is the main thing I do teleport away from, but !PD then !Spd can be greatly effective in turning the tables as well.

A good tip in a grinding fight is to try see ahead of time that you will likely start to get into trouble (not always possible, I know!) - a !spd at this point can save you the risk of uncertain teleporting and a heap of potions to boot.
