Line 1: Line 1:
Stair dancing is similar to [[Pillar dancing]], in that the player uses the stairs to evade monsters in the dungeon. In games with [[persistent]] levels, the [[PC]] can be fighting an enemy, become badly wounded, then run up the nearest stairs. Since in most roguelikes, the [[PC]] is the only entity that can use the stairs, the enemy cannot follow. The [[PC]] then can heal and return to battle the injured enemy. This process can be repeated until the enemy is dead. The effect on game balance is that a monster that would normally be very dangerous for the player, is not very dangerous at all when encountered near stairs.
