Tips and Misc

Despite its appearance, this quest is fairly linear.

There are a few scripted cutscenes at the start of the quest (and also later), so move a few steps forward to trigger it and buff while waiting for Elminster. The first monster you'll meet won't be a problem for very long, but it can damage you anyway if you get too close.

In the Demonweb, if you aren't sure which way to go, follow any torches, or anything that is lit or glows, or is an archway (natural or man-made). If you fall, you are teleported closer to the quest entrance.

Ozebaw may (not guaranteed) appear in one of three spots (marked as chests) on the Demonweb map:

on the third (southwest) island.
on the fourth (west of start) island.
on an island (south of second shrine), which require jumping off.

Malchor's Undersun Goggles will function within this quest (for the second map, which is within the Underdark itself).

The Demonweb Terror (Mother-of-Thousands) may (not guaranteed) appear in one of several spots within the Underdark, drow map area:

The room east of the first shrine.
The room north of the first shrine, to the northwest.
In the second section of the drow area, in the room to the far east.

The quest will end as soon as you speak to Ana, one of the prisoners in the cell at the end fight.

Talk to Elminster in the Eveningstar main square to receive your reward.

Unlike the first three quests of The Web of Chaos chain, this adventure ends in the Forgotten Realms. No chests in Epic difficulties will give Epic chests or Epic Crafting ingredients.

If you cannot enter this quest, you have probably forgotten to pick up the end reward from Elminster on your previous run.
