optimal branch timing
For some reason I tend to clear D10 before I enter lair. And I tend to clear lair before doing anything else, but it's possible that the bottom floor of lair is actually more difficult than orc 1 or D 11-12.
I tend to clear orc after clearing lair, though sometimes I might do another level or 2 of dungeon, but this is probably suboptimal (orc 1 is certainly easier than D11 or L8 I think)
Also I tend to clear D15 before entering any lair branches, but I'm unsure if this is optimal and I'm unsure what the relative difficulties of the 4 branches are. I think snake is easiest, then spider, then swamp then shoals.. And again there is probably an argument for clearing snake 1-4 then doing some swamp before returning.
SO... in an average game, what order is optimal to complete each level?
Thanks
