Every monster killed has a flat 15% chance of spawning a ladder, assuming the enemy was killed over an unobstructed tile. This does not prevent ladders spawning from rocks.

Some floors are preloaded with a ladder (12, 52, 92, treasure floors in skull caverns). These ladders do not prevent ladders spawning from rocks.

After a floor loads, there is a 95% chance that a ladder will try to spawn. A tile is chosen at random, and if it is unobstructed then a ladder is placed. This will prevent ladders spawning from rocks.

Every rock hit has a base chance of 2% of spawning a ladder. This is adjusted by daily luck, increasing by 2% at best or decreasing by 2% at worst with the [[Special Charm]] adding 0.5%. Food buffs add 1% for every point of Luck. The inverse of the number of rocks remaining after the rock is hit is added (e.g. if 5 rocks remaining then 1/5 = 0.2 or 20%, if 100 rocks remaining then 1/100 = 0.01 or 1%). If no enemies remain then 4% is added. If this chance hits, then a ladder will spawn, and prevent further ladders spawning from rocks. In the skull caverns, there is a 20% chance that a shaft will spawn instead, and this does not prevent further ladders/shafts spawning from rocks.

Dungeon floors are a type of infested floor and are similar in appearance to the single floor of the [[Quarry Mine]]. They may spawn randomly at any floor of the Mines after the quarry has been unlocked. These floors have the same enemies and rocks as the Quarry Mine, which can often be considerably higher level than that of the floors they replace. Players without high-level tools or weapons might benefit from using a [[Staircase]] to skip these floors to save time.
