Exploration is a massive pillar of this adventure, as the party must navigate the unmapped jungles of Chult to find the source of the curse. The hexcrawl mechanics provided in the book are detailed and can be overwhelming without proper study. Many DMs prefer using a Tomb of Annihilation PDF to easily copy and paste descriptions of the lush, dangerous environments. Whether it is the Order of the Gauntlet's camps or the snake-people of the Fane of the Night Serpent, every location is rich with lore. Accessing this information quickly is vital when players decide to go off the beaten path, which happens frequently in such an open-world setting.
