 Its also possible I missed some things since I pretty quickly
glossed over some of the stuff.

 Switch to leather armor (or no armor at all.)   on creatures that attack with
acid.  Switching to weapons that slay that specific creature are
also useful.

 As another note - items that have no material type are immune to
everything.  There are not many items out there that have this, but 
there are a few.

 maps also contain other information (swapped out maps or when a
map will be swapped out).  However, there is information in there
that the character probably should not know.

 But the maps command can also be a good measure if that map is
the correct difficulty - If you are fifth level and go into
a map with difficult 15+, you probably shouldn't be there.

 I'll see about adding a command that gives information on just the
current map (message/creator, difficulty, players, etc.)
