Maximizing Your Underwater Success

[ Return to Dressing For Success ]

The Hermit humbly requests that this page be rewritten or expanded. Missing items, needs to be put in some kind of order, are we including *all* underwater effects? See discussion page.

Adventuring underwater unprepared can cost 2 adventures, in addition to stiff penalties to meat drops, item drops, and initiative depending on the underwater zone. Dressing properly can make you a better diver, saving adventures and improving loot prospects.
