==Use==
 
Staircases can be used to pass through mine levels at any time (one level per staircase). You can use as many as you have or can make, repeatedly. But making them can prove to be a heavy use of resources, so it is usually best to reserve them for occasions where there is enough need to justify the expense. They are an assist to situations of greater challenge or difficulty. These tend to present themselves more often in later stages of the game.

The Staircase is a 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 or chests.

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.

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 × data-sort-value="20">Gold.png20g = data-sort-value="1980">Gold.png1,980g per staircase. In game year 2+, the cost is 99 Stones × data-sort-value="50">Gold.png50g = data-sort-value="4950">Gold.png4,950g per staircase.

Tips

  • Use a staircase to evade one or more monster fights. Some mine levels can be especially challenging. Consider upgrading your weapon instead, though.
  • Use staircases in the Skull Cavern to quickly descend to lower levels for greater chances of valuable items, like Iridium Ore and Prismatic Shards.
