So i was wondering what everyones favourite encounter/room etc. in this module?

I can honestly say mine would have to be the room beyond the Grand Chamber where Hedrack was. So many cool things there...to bad my party never made it there...they made it everywhere else though...probably because Iuz showed up:D

The Chamber of the New Master, in the Moathouse.

Lareth survived the fight with the PC's in my campaign, and came back to haunt them many times in the games to come, becoming a recurring villian in my campaign. My players still curse his name.

The red dragon in the Fire Node.

I've run it twice getting to that point.

1. PC pointed the rod of a wonder
2. PC rolled and got otto's irresistable dance
3. I rolled a 1 on the dragon's save

Twice.

Easy.

The freaking water temple pool thing... and the cursed trident of yearning. Here is the NASTY Gygaxian combo...

The pool has the ability to use suggestion each round to make PCs want to swim in it. It also deals tremendous damage to a PC AND his her items. Also, any items that are destroyed by the pool give it their powers for the next few rounds...

The cursed trident in the cleric's room adjacent to the pool room causes anyone TOUCHING it to instantly want to submerse themselves in the deepest body of water, even fighting off allies to do so.

Touch the trident - POOF - run to the pool. Jump in and float to the bottom of the acid bath... Trident gets destroyed and you are eaten by acid in mere seconds (and don't want to leave)... Then the pool gains the trident's power to cause anyone merely touched or splashed by a drop to suddenly want to drown themselves.

TPK? Maybe.

I don't really have one, I DM'd it so long ago and haven't really read it since... the players freed the umber hulk from room 309 and it tunnelled underneath the dungeons until everything collapsed, and the Temple of Elemental Evil is no more. In the years since, my priest had the sinkhole filled in and built a temple dedicated to Zeus over the site...
