I'm curious if anyone knows if areas that connect different levels of a dungeon still give the skill gain bonus, or if they're just considered normal wilderness areas.
For example, the pathway between the exit of Cove 2 and entrance to Cove 3. Intuitively, you would think so since you can only get there via the dungeon and some of these pathways (like the one mentioned) have mobs on them. Some don't, of course, like between Cove 1 and 2, but maybe that makes a difference? For now I'm just presuming that they don't count as part of the dungeon, but it's bugging me that I can't figure it out.
