easy find stairs
Have your partners tactics set to 'go the other way'.
Walk somewhere else from your partner(s) and check their area sometimes (check their area by pressing X and selecting team. Move the screen over to your partner and the area they're in is recorded on the map.)
This will help you find the stairs faster
