How to find an rescue dead party?
Hi!

One one of my parties has been killed on floor 3 (yes, I´m a newbie). I have several characters in spare and want to rescue them. I heard that there is a spell to teleport to them. How can I manage to find and carry the dead bodies to town.

Thanks!

Teleport is a level 7 Mage spell called MALOR. Unless you have that you have to walk to an area where the dead bodies are in line of sight at least if not on the actual tile. Priest spell KANDI will help locate bodies. If, however, it shows a level of -1 that character is LOST and cannot be recovered. Also the game keeps track of how long a body has been in the dungeon, the longer they are down there the better chance of losing items and being eaten hence becoming unrecoverable. Good Luck! and hope this helps.
Thanks for the information! My party members were around level 7-9, when I lost them. Is this to low for level 3?

Not necessarily, the RNG for encounters can be pretty brutal. I've had a party of Lord, Samurai, Ninja, Priest, Mage, Mage - all levelled into the mid 20's - able to one shot Werdna and his cronies get TPK'd by a group of Poison Giants by surprise when all 4 decided to breathe on my party. So, to coin a phrase, sometimes sh*t just happens.

Will the game tell you if you step on the tile containing the dead team? I simply can't find it where it is supposed to be, and the Locate spell could be more precise, "NE area of floor 4" doesn't help that much. I feel like I have checked every tile of the NE part by now, incl the areas you need to activate a Teleport trap to reach, but no success.

No, you have to camp and search for bodies.
