    Besides the Drow quests are there any other important time limits in SoA or ToB? I know the drow one I stumbled across by accident and am very thank-ful I had a saved game. But is there anything else that if you don't do it fast enough you can miss out or get yourself in trouble?

    I believe that several of the quests that involve an NPC must be completed in a decent amount of time, or they'll leave. Examples include returning to Anomen's home after his sister died, clearing Nalia's estate, etc. They'll warn you if you're taking too long, but if you don't heed their warning, they'll eventually leave.

    All the quests for the Paladin stronghold are time related, as I found out the hard way. I was told to head to the Umar Hills to help with a battle being fought but I had unfinished business in the city so I decided I'd do that first *then* head to the Umar Hills and help out. Got quite a shock when I arrived at the Umar Hills and the battle was over, then even more of a shock for being booted out of the Order after arriving back and being told I'd failed.

    THe bard stronghold quests benefit from you being on time, and apparently suffer if you don't come when summoned in a timely fashion.

    @Tronak el Karbaro: I do the same, hehe. Experience and fun! And, somehow, revenge for Drizzt...

    Considering the fact that Ust Natha is a city it's very easy to just slaughter everyone with a midlevel SoA party :rolleyes:
