Post your nugget of info and hopefully we can all learn something new!

This is somewhat recent but I want to mention this for other players like myself who wasn't aware. You can surprise attack using a 90 degrees wall bend and a reach weapon. Specifically, leading a mob around the bend and attacking once you see it again. You do need to hug the walls on the last two tiles of the bend and then you're free to keep hugging or move diagonally. Obviously, this isn't meant for square rooms and similar right angled walls but ones where you can escape line of sight to make the surprise attack.

not very recently, but for the longest time i thought you had to jump down the empty well to fall down the room, so if i didnt have a levi potion or something i would skip it lol

Yeah, I would use a levitation potion and wait until it ran out so I would fall directly down the well.

Something related I learned is plunging down without any aid on the first or second floor. The damage is minimal and you should be able to recover the loss easily in the beginning. Just make sure you have like 3/4 health. It's a bit riskier on the second floor because you could get unlucky with crabs or champions on the third floor, if you haven't healed up before exiting the room.

Well-rooms are perfect for green-seed health recovery.

Safe and quiet.
