Part 2:
What if you only have a gate, which is what happens in catacombs and sometimes in the dungeon?
Well in a pinch, say an IM game where the scout awoke too many monsters or a boss, what you can do is cast the firewall on the outside of a door (see image below), more than 1 tile offset from the door and then cross the firewall and run into the room. The monsters will not follow and will roast. Again, you can always stack 2 firewalls behind the first if many monsters come.
