[боби через мом]

can i do both and not mess up a romance? i know lae'zel wants to get to the Githyanki Creche. however i would like to do the under dark for some extra levels. if i do the under dark first will it mess up the romance in some way. like getting mad that we are going to the under dark first and not finding the creche yet has an example. thank you for any help you can give

As long as you don't exit the areas into the next act, you're fine.

So explore those areas all you like, but don't head to the spookybad place until you're done.

Underdark story progress is after you use the duergar ship to grymforge and mountain pass when you travel there. If you did not stop kagha's ritual, all tieflings will die and the grove becomes inaccessible.

Traveling to grymforge: If you rest or go to camp there, the story progresses as well and every duergar is gone afterwards. So you should do everything related to them before you rest.

But yeah you can do both. Unless you take the elevator in the underdark or the second exit at the mountain pass location to the shadow lands.

i ended up killing everyone in the goblin camp infact i didnt even find the druid found out when i killed everyone he had escaped back to the grove. i was really worried i had broke the story by doing that. since i had not got that quest yet i was looking for the creche the quest marker looked like it was above the goblim camp

yes

Yup, I did so in my playthrough.

Just don't go up with the elevator in Grymforge and turn back to the pass (or the other way around).

Do everything in Act 1 before getting on the boat to Grymforge, then finish Grymforge completely, so you should be ready to get on the elevator, but don't. Instead of taking the elevator, take the mountain pass and complete the monastery/gith, once that area is complete, then take the path to the Shadow-Lands. Trying to go back to do the monastery during Act 2 can mess things up with Halsin if you do it at the wrong time. Plus, the story there doesn't really mesh with Act 2 at all. It should be done after Act 1.

Yeah. I did mountain pass well into Act 2. The game will tell you when you reach the point of no return, so have at it. Depending on the choice you make in the mountain pass, I found it better to wait anyways

Its worth doing both mountains and underdark, given the perma buffs you can get from both places. Omeluun upgrading your tadpole in his examination. As well sitting in the zaissk in the gith base and succeeing all 3 tests for another upgrade.

I like doing all quests in all zones before progressing. Just reached act 3 and my party hit lvl 10.
