How to raise exploration score?

Do I need to explore every tile? I've got 2 foresight from scroll book, but the score is still not good.

When I want to increase my exploration score I run through all floors with foresight before getting the amulet. I usually do this when I've defeated the King because I usually give the crown to the rat king. On the way up I buy all map scrolls and turn them into foresight scrolls.

With a little speed you need only three scrolls to search every floor, leaving one scroll for the demon halls. Though I usually hope that I find enough map scrolls in demon halls that I don't have to run through them with foresight.

How would that pairs with on diet? Maybe I need to craft some Aquatic Rejuvenation.

Regarding Demon Hall, maybe Feather Fall would help by skipping floors and do the exploration during ascension? I'm not sure though.

It* seems that succubi will refuse to drop SoMM when I need it, and will only drop SoMM when I already got four of them...

If your goal is to get a perfect score run then go for Warlock. Feed and heal yourself by hitting enemies. You can explore as much as you want to clear everything.

You can give the Crown to the Rat King? What will I get from him then?

His own crown. Try it out.

Exploration score is not based on tiles, to get full exploration score you a floor you have to:

  • see every item pile, open every container, use every key (except for containers that are impossible, e.g. 2nd crystal chest)
  • clear any magical fire or sacrificial fire
  • defeat every state/mimic (ally conversion counts)
  • clear every barricade, locked door (except extra crystal doors), and hidden door

The times I fail is because I didn't find a hidden door between a hall and a room I believe, all the others are findable with a bit of time.

Does it include the chests with gold in the hidden rooms during the troll quest?

Exploration score only includes normal floors. Quests have their own separate score category. In the case of the blacksmith quest exploring just means finding 40 gold.

Thanks man, appreciate the details.

I tested the Trinity ring of wealth in a RoW run last night. Removing the +19 ring, triggering +4 Trinity RoW ability then re-equiping the ring then killing a mob to drop a gold weapon while still having Trinity buff resulted in the expected +10 enchanted weapon not a +12 version.

I try to work shit out myself, but some things like how the exploration score is calculated are hard to test.

How will exploration score work with the new imp quest?

Scoring will continue to vary for each quest. The objectives of the quest will make it clear how to get full points, just like the blacksmith quest.
