Advice on avoiding emergencies
So, to start off, I just ran into Rupert who has a 67% chance to confuse or paralyze me. Seems like certain death unless I get away.
The definitely safe thing is to ?blink all the way to the SW, which will be out of Rupert's LOS, then go straight to the stairs. But that seems wasteful. Is there an equally safe method that is less expensive? And is there any way to upgrade my character so I don't have to spend consumables in these situations? The only book I've found is Young Poisoners which is useless.
Thanks!
