The unique Compass "Learning Advisor" displays special texts which help you to identify the dungeon level you are on. The unique Compass "Sparkling Seeds" produces Plasma when in a hand. Where can I find a Compass? Here, for example. It is highly recommend getting "Learning Advisor" from The Emerald Shop.
