Kornel Kisielewicz:
BTW, the BFG requirement is covered by the halls of carnage -- there is a granted BFG there, and the level itself is granted -- so you can ALWAYS get a BFG. The cathedral and mortuary also ALWAYS appear on difficulty > I'm too young to die, and never on lower.

The only random appearing levels are hell's armory, city of skulls and spider's lair -- and those don't have any unique rewards.

Thanks for educating me on the Halls and Mortuary generation. Though the Armory will be a much greater help when modifying standard weapons + new Whizkid is in release, I didn't realize the others were guaranteed.

Also, as for the Nethack example...obviously guaranteeing GS is silly and not really similar to what I mean. Sokoban, Minetown w/ Cellar + Luck Stone, Fort Ludious (yet to ascend and not see it), these are guaranteed 'bonus' levels I think of. Most of the 'bonus' levels that come immediately to my mind, like the Bigroom, weren't bonuses since they simply replaced another standard level in the dungeon.

Potman:
In fact, Nethack's a bit of a bad example as most of its bonus levels are indeed guaranteed. Even Grayswandir, if you're lawful and feel like spending hours of sacrificing on an altar.

That's kind of why I chose it, since I think most would agree it wouldn't be too cool to have a gnomish mine-less, sokoban-less character. But I digress.
