Skull Cavern

update
Unlike the Mines, there is no elevator to save progress, but on every floor there is a ladder at the starting point where you can leave the Skull Cavern. Each visit must start again from the first floor. If [[The Player|the player]] runs out of health or passes out while exploring Skull Cavern, they will wake up sometime later on the same day, in [[Harvey's Clinic]]. A fee of {{price|1000}} will be deducted for emergency surgery. Some items may also be lost.
Every ten floors the The chance to find [[Iridium Ore]] increases significantly until floor 100, after which it increases slowlysteadily as you descend into the Skull Cavern. The monsters in the Cavern also have a chance to drop ore and [[Iridium Bar]]s. It can be a good idea to bring the [[Lava Katana]] or [[Galaxy Sword]], as enemies are particularly strong. High [[Luck]] increases the frequency of ore veins and the appearance of ladders/holes. Since the frequency Rapid descent to floors with a higher chance of spawning [[Mining#Mining Nodes|Iridium OreNodes]] increases for every 10 floors descended into the Cavern, rapid descent is often more efficient for acquiring ore than thorough exploration. With a full inventory of stone, it's possible to craft [[staircase]]s to descend to floor 300+.
The plaques that can be occasionally found on the walls contain [[Secrets#Skull Cavern Plaques|enciphered messages]].
===Food===
Shown below are foods with [[buffs]] that are useful when exploring the Skull Cavern. Note that eating a food with buffs will wipe out any active buffs and replace them with the buffs from the newly eaten food. If the newly eaten food has no buffs, the existing buffs will remain in effect.
 
Duration of buffs for food lowers as the day progresses. For example, if Crab Cakes are eaten early in the day their duration is 16+ minutes. If eaten at 10pm it only lasts 2-3 minutes.
