 * misc=
 * You can cast haste on the beds and bookshelves to make them move faster.
 * Note the three beds in the side room of the laundry.
 * If killed, beds and bookshelves will respawn in their original location. They will be harder to kill the second time, due to their "experience in combat."


 * Enemies respawn MUCH more quickly on the Elite setting and can make soloing this quest a nightmare. The beds' and bookshelves' HP does not scale and they move very slowly even with Haste. The beds also move faster than the bookshelves and can eventually outrun them. It's recommended that you make 2 trips back and forth to assemble the ship: One convoy to bring all of the beds and a separate convoy to bring all of the bookshelves. Assign 3 to 4 people to clear the way forward while the rest of the party watches the rear.


 * Two fixes were put in with U16:
 * Beholders in the Airship portion of Acute Delirium now fall to their deaths properly if they are impaired before reaching the Airship.
 * Beholders in the Airship portion of Acute Delirium are no longer considered Extraplanar (due to being in Xoriat), and can no longer be banished.
 * Be careful when fighting the mimic, when you are in the beholder's stomach. It does more and more acid damage with each hit you do.
 * The mimic in the beholder's stomach drops keys to the other chests once it's defeated, but you can also just use Open Lock or Knock on those chests.
 * After being expelled from the beholder's stomach, use the scepter to open a portal to Eberron.
 * To "close the portal", use the scepter again in the laundry where you constructed the airship, then give the scepter to Belashyrra (dialog option).

Special notes

 * You can find the 'Lost Silver Key' under one of the beds while collecting beds for the airship.
 * If that part of the ship is completed it's no longer possible to move beds.
 * This key opens the 'Lost Chest', hidden in a secret room beneath the bar. It must be opened while still in madness mode.
 * This chest is said to drop the Lenses of Opportunity
 * The secret door can be found in madness mode, at least granting some bonus XP.
 * The secret door can be found in madness mode, at least granting some bonus XP.


 * A chest is hidden in one of several possible locations behind a shelf in the library and can be accessed while collecting shelves.
