Players who plan to bypass the dungeon entirely will avoid most of the dangers above, but will need a few extra supplies to get out safely after doing so: | |||
* A way to either bypass or destroy the walls, such as {{favilink|phasing}} through them, {{favilink|teleportation|teleporting}} past them, or simply destroying the walls with {{favilink|burrowing claws}} or a {{favilink|pickaxe}}. | |||
** [[Mafeo]] is guaranteed to have a pickaxe for sale. | |||
* A way to survive the fall. It will deal {{heart}}{{dice tooltip|5d20+225}} damage, enough to kill most characters even in midgame. Access to [[Flying]] will avoid all damage, and cooking with [[Sliced bop cheek]] can reduce fall damage by 90%. A {{favilink|rubbergum injector}} will reduce the fall damage by 75% for [[True Kin]] and 50% for mutants. | |||
** The {{favilink|flattened remains}} are a guaranteed source of flight available to any character, although the wings will need to be repaired first. | |||
** If the max damage the fall could deal is more than your maximum HP, but the minimum is survivable, a source of [[Precognition]] will allow you to keep retrying until you survive. | |||
* If the player chooses to fall and simply tank the damage, a way to quickly heal, such as a {{Favilink|Salve injector}}, is highly recommended. It is likely that an ooze will be waiting somewhere near the bottom of the elevator, and will attack before you have a chance to heal by waiting. | |||
* A quick and somewhat lucky player can avoid Slog entirely, as it's possible for a waydroid to appear close enough to the elevator for them to simply grab it and run before Slog can reach them. Precognition can help to check if this is the case. | |||
* Finally, a player willing to tunnel a long distance can simply go 5 strata down elsewhere and dig their way straight to the Cloaca. This can take longer, and requires the player to keep in mind where they are in relation to Golgotha as they cannot check the map underground, but completely avoids the fall damage. | |||
