question regarding secret floors.

[Brontanius]

Is it intentional that they can be blocked off with no physical or magical way to get to them?

Ive been trying to get the achievement where you are to equip a full set of artifact gear but for some reason nearly every time i try to go for said artifact gear, the first piece(in the gnomish maze) is generally gated off from play as rng has made it so i dont have a levitation skill or any form of digging skill/item to break my way over to the switches.

Even when im not doing a run for the artifacts, i find that i can rarely ever go to the secret town on floor 3 either due to the same issue, despite it being probably one of the best decisions a player can make due to the sheer amount of npcs to recruit, trade to do or loot to get if you kill everything.

The mines secret room is a bit annoying, yes. I think I heard rumor that it would be changed to make it more easily accessible by early-game heroes someday. Until then, there's a few ways to get around it: teleport, levitation, tinkering equipment, and flutter. If you didn't pick a mechanist, vampire, or insectiod, your best bet is probably a ring of teleport or similar items.

Secret location and must be random and difficult to access. The question has already been discussed at the forum and the main proposal of players to make it always available.

The player always comes out pumped down into the dungeons of dwarves and constantly finish the game in red armor.

If you're trying for secret armour - the best class for that is Joker! Since he starts with permanent levitation. He may be a difficult class to learn, but he helps immensely when gathering secret area loot.

This may be slightly offtopic,

but I do have to agree here that unless you limit your own runs you (generally) only end up using artifact gear.

The drones can interact with items and levers!

Or by abusing teleport traps, toss one end over the gap, and step on the other end to get across said gap.
