DEKLO
WOOD GROVE
Talking
to the Woodcutter
Find Tarim at
#3. He’s a woodcutter by profession. Apparently Deklo wood is highly
prized for its strength and durability, and he would like to get
his hands on some. There’s just one little problem. The grove is
infested with giant spiders. This is where you come in. He’d like
you to kill the spiders for him. He indicates that Jaroo, the local
Druid won’t mind. As far as I know, you can hold him to that. No
conversation with Jaroo reveals any concern over your actions concerning
the grove.
Killing
the Spiders
 Upon
arriving at the grove, the party is beset by two Giant Spiders.
They cast Web as an innate power, and their poison can drain Strength.
The recommended strategy is to keep your comrades as close together
as possible. The reason for this is to prevent party members from
being kept apart by the webs, and therefore in isolated danger.
By sticking together, the possibility for concentrating multiple
attacks upon a single spider that approaches remains intact. Until
the spiders approach, missile weapons come in handy. If your party
members have the initiative, have your fighters step up directly
in front of the remaining party members to meet the onset of the
spiders.
Leveling
Up
This
is one of many areas where you can keep resting until random monsters
arrive to attack you. I suggest that it is well worth your while
to earn your first 1,000 xp needed to progress to the next level
at this spot. The reason for this is that it well behooves your
party to be of at least 3rd-level before taking on the first dungeon
of the game, the Moathouse. The ideal plan is to obtain your 2nd-level
here, then perform the various quests in Hommlet so as to become
3rd-level by the time you leave for the Moathouse.
