This is a fundamental mistake in your analysis.
The adventure is set up as a sandbox, not as a linear path. There are 4 encounters in the 2nd chapter that are to be used between the 3rd and 7th chapters.
The random encounters as well are used as the party travels from place to place.
The 2nd chapter does not equal 2nd level.
Yes I understand that, my thinking there was that the party through random encounters would most likely gain at least 600 exp. I understand that it's a sandbox and I understand that I should be using it throughout levels 3-7. However I believed that the most prime place to put it would be here at level 2 because that is what WotC advises for their adventurers league. Also, it's not a fundamental mistake, it's not really even a mistake it's more of just something that I thought was a given because that's how WotC thought it would work. If you want me to edit it that's fine, but I was just going by the people who (kinda) designed this adventure were thinking.
