If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it belongs here. Also, come here if you just need to get hammered.

The monster delay isn't even an intentional feature; it just happens to work like that because monsters are generated with zero energy and only act when they accumulate enough. But monsters that want to follow you through a stairwell need to start following you pretty early in that process, and it will be too late for them to follow you by the time they get their first action.

What on earth are you talking about, man? If the priests were not adjacent, he can just go back upstairs and they can't follow.

Probably it's just a random occurrence

Someone correct me if I am wrong but if you immediately ascend on the stairs, and this was your first stair to the level than the priests do not get any action, so they cannot smite you to death from a distance.
