    [​IMG] I entered the portal to the 'Other' plane after completing the quest at the 'Five Flaggons' Inn in the Bridge district and have been attacked by the bounty-hunters. I haven't yet been able to beat them without losing at least one member of the party. Is it worth following in to the portal at an early stage in the game or will it still be there if you leave and come back later?

    No you can just wait and come back for the quest later, however there are some items in the area that aren't bad when your not too far in the game.

    No! Go in there!

    *minor spoiler*

    There are beautiful Boots of Speed in one of the bounty hunters there. They keep you hasted all the time. Do not forget to search their bodies.

    -Spoiler-

    First go to the east, not to the north you'll miss some good items.

    Yes...yes. For example the short sword kundame which gives you one bonus attack.

    WAAAAYYY, COOL! I didn't do the quest my first time through, because it was too difficult for me then. But now I'm going to try it again!

    The halls are way too narrow. Having half your party teleport to a room of Djinns (not that they're exactly hard, but the area effect fire spell they do really annoys us spellcasters) while going to fight the Warden and all his friends is not fun.
