A few thoughts on this.
Interesting that the 'second time through guy,' having found Teleport on a deeper level in the previous run from 1-16 could get through. Trouble is, I don't think you will tend to find Teleport books, or even be able to buy them, by that level in SP, though I will have to check Jarulf's guide to sort out qlvl/ilvl on the book. They might spawn at Adria's that early, but for some reason my brain thinks not. Will check Jarulf's Guide.
From Lemming:
I think I might have once found a Phasing (Warp is not in D1 pre Hellfire) book by dlvl four, but maybe not. Too far back. So Phasing might be the rather chaotic answer. :)
However, if one has completed SP, and wants to do it in SP NM via the usual "create a nm MP" then make an SP NM workaround, then I see how this would be a useful trick. :)
Damn, it really has been a while since I had that game open . . .

Quote:Thus, transportation spells like Warp, Phasing, and Teleport can be used to skip Snotspill and proceed to dlvl 5.
