For those of you who've already finished the Tomb of Annihilation, about how many in game days did it take to find and destroy the Soulmonger?

Has no one completed ToA yet? I know it came out recently. But I figured some groups have already gone through it.

I'm not sure, but if you are trying to save someone's life then you will be on a very tight schedule. You need a character with a great survival skill (so you don't get sidetracked), and you will need to avoid side quests which can be difficult at the beginning.

My group needed to do it in 90 days. We stayed on track, and went straight to the major plot points (largely by luck). We accepted exhaustion to move at a fast pace, and we succeeded in the vast majority of our survival checks, but our time is almost up. We just got to the tomb, so we'll see.

If your DM strictly adheres to the time limit, likely your group will either run out of time, or be severely underpowered/under leveled if you even get to the end tomb.
