I have 2 fighters, a sorceress and a cleric. Should I just fight or do the quests? Also, where is the exit from te underdark?

I would recoomand doing all the guests, not many great quest items, but some good experience!!!
If you don't do all the quests atleast go to all the places in the underdark before you exit, some of the best (forgeable) items in the game are in the undeerdark.

The exis is after you give the dragoneggs back. Or go west and there is an exit to!
I do not have the touch, nor do I have the power.

Go to the lair of the Fish folks somewhere in the northwest of the underdark. Same direction inside the lair itself.

my recommendation: Do all of the quests. When you finish or get tired of that, kill all of the drow. Then go kill the benevolent dragon. make sure you killed the svirfneblin too. and those merchants. as a general rule: the fewer people you leave alive in your wake the better.

Do the quests. You should use the drow merchants as well to get Sentinal Shield +4 and Firetooth dagger +3, for example.
If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do.

Those Drow are weak. If you survive the quests, you can easily wipe out the town when you're done. :D

You cannot get out the west entrance without completing the silver dragon's quest. I know I tried. The doors are blocked and knock doesn't work. Still a good idea to clear the area first and get Prince's blood for quest inside city. Save a little on your running around. I'm not sure, but I think this quest has you do the most running around than any other quest in the game. A real nuisance, but not difficult.

Yeah, but watch out for their longrange spellcasters who love to cast Confusion. ;)
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.

You can talk the guards into letting you out.
Yeah it is a good idea to aquire the blood before entering the city cause it is a timed quest which can be tough otherwise.
You can't handle the truth!
