I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I can't find it with the search engine, which I probably just don't know how to use properly.
I'm running OotA, and of course there is a player who is playing a ranger with favored terrain: Underdark. He's an elf who has drow as his favored enemy. Fair enough.
It seems unbalanced to give the ranger favored terrain bonuses for over 90% of the adventure.
What have people done to deal with this situation? In particular, if he is able to have his whole party (all 16 or so counting the fellow prisoners who escaped with the PCs) ignore difficult terrain, they will be able to outrun the drow pursuers with laughable ease (as they will be going twice as quickly).
Of course I COULD just fudge one or two of the drow pursuers as rangers with Underdark favored terrain too...
