Question about the underdark tunnels

the fly · 06-21-2002, 06:35 PM

Can anyone tell me if I should enter the tunnels in the underdark (like the mind flayer or beholder sections) before I enter the drow city, or will there be quests within the city that bring me back to those areas.

you dont *HAVE* to, since you have to do ONE of them anyway, its just easier since you already have all the stuff 'on-hand'.

You need to go to the beholder section to find a couple of things to take back to cromwell the smith. You'll find them when you first enter, there's really nothing else after that.

Yes you will get a quest to go to either the Illithid Tunnels or Beholder tunnels. Tip... go for the beholder tunnels it is much easyer than the illithids.

Heck, I do all three tunnels before I enter the Drow City. It makes for an easier time later when you have to infiltrate the Drow City, because there is no time limit if you do it before entering the Drow City.

It is good for the Xp anyway.

Awg, I've never really had any troubles with that time limit myself... I normally take it with a grain of salt. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You managed to raid all three tunnels within three days? Bravo then.

Thanks for the help, I think I'' tackle the tunnels first.

I normally do both tunnels in the one day. Chaotic Commands on your best fighter gets you through the mind flayer tunnels. Just send the tank by themselves. And the Shield of Balduran or the Cloak of Mirroring keeps you safe from the beholders. Beholders don't stand up to a concentrated attack for long anyway.

Time Limits easy to hold, if you keep all the fun stauff you wanna do to that three days, it becoems a real bitch.
