You are also able to peer into all the mountain elevations in a room, at an equilibrium cost. | |||
|notes = Scaling uses balance. Mountain rooms have 10 special elevations between flying and the ground. Like how flying puts you in "Flying above <room name>", scaling up will put you "In the mountains above <room name>". If flying, one can use <tt>LAND MOUNTAINS</tt> to immediately reach the highest mountain elevation, however, without Mountaineering, the landed flyer will then rapidly drop down through these elevation rooms one at a time (taking health damage each time).<br><br> | |||
