What about going through level 5 and keep battling the boss monster -- There are heaps of monsters between him and the stairs..... and the boss gives you loads more experience then the pools do. (As long as they aren't paralysed or worse dead....)

There's a boss monster on level 5? Is it near the stairs to level 6?

> What type of characters do you have? Have you thought about retraining a couple of them? What kind of spells do your spellcasters have? Try going for agility rather than strength -- and lighter armour to give your fighters the chance to attack first on level 8.

Well, 2 of the characters currently have Light Armour. Of the others, the two Knights have Knight's Suits and the two remaining have Anti-Heat Leather. My Wizard knows most spells up to CONTAGION, and my two Sorcerors both know most spells up to SEIZURES. But the SEIZURES spell is next to useless on level 8. If I'm lucky it might end up seizing one monster in the entire 6 monster groups.

> Or you could try just raiding on level 8 -- fighting a couple of groups of monsters and then heading back to recuperate.

That would be suicidal. As I explained before going to level 8 usually kills my entire party in the first fight they get into.
