The '''Staircase''' is a [[Crafting|craftable]] item used to instantly create a ladder that leads down one level in [[The Mines]] or [[Skull Cavern]]. It cannot be placed on level 0 or 120 of the mines. Staircases cannot be stacked in [[Inventory|inventory]] or [[Chest|chests]].

The '''Staircase''' is a [[Crafting|craftable]] item used to instantly create a ladder that leads down one floor in [[the Mines]] or [[Skull Cavern]]. It cannot be placed on floors 0 or 120 of the mines or in the [[Quarry Mine]].

Staircases work just like the game-supplied down-ladders. Each one works only for one use. If you leave the mine or return to a higher level and look for one you placed earlier, you will find that it is gone. In addition, once a staircase has been placed, it cannot be picked up again, even if it has not been used.

Staircases work just like the game-supplied down-ladders. Each one works only for one use. Leaving the mine or returning to a higher floor will result in the staircase being permanently gone. In addition, once a staircase has been placed, it cannot be picked up again, even if it has not been used.

If you do not have enough [[Stone]] to craft a staircase, you can buy Stone from [[Robin]] at the [[Carpenter's Shop]]. In game year 1, the cost is 99 Stones × {{price|20}} = {{price|1980}} per staircase. In game year 2+, the cost is 99 Stones × {{price|50}} = {{price|4950}} per staircase.

Stone can be bought from [[Robin]] at the [[Carpenter's Shop]] if the player does not have enough. In year 1, the cost is 99 Stones × {{price|20}} = {{price|1980}} per staircase. In year 2+, the cost is 99 Stones × {{price|100}} = {{price|9900}} per staircase. The [[Desert Trader]] will trade staircases for one [[Jade]] each on Sundays.

==Tips==

==Tips==

*Use a staircase to evade one or more monster fights. Some mine levels can be especially challenging. Consider upgrading your weapon instead, though.

*Staircases can be used to escape difficult enemies or descend quickly in [[the Mines]] or [[Skull Cavern]].

*Use staircases in the [[Skull Cavern]] to quickly descend to lower levels for greater chances of valuable items, like [[Iridium Ore]] and [[Prismatic Shard]]s.

*Using [[Jade]] from [[Crystalarium]]s for staircases at the [[Desert Trader]] on Sundays and putting them in [[deconstructor]]s can net the player massive amounts of [[stone]] quickly.
