That is correct because of the greater interior length of those compartments. And I'm generally not in favor of increasing an item's power beyond what is stated in the books, and treating it the way you'd prefer would represent what I believe is an unintended power boost of the item. The efficient quiver is a damm nice item as it is, and technically speaking even what I do allow in the scope of this question is a significant boost to it's utility.

It's not even what I 'prefer', as I said I would have no issues on a ruling in not being able to use the side compartments to pluck from and fire arrows.

I was just asking from clarification from yourself on actually dumping out the items in the quiver, as when talking with others, or on the forums, most have not had issues moving the arrows over in in combat as a move action.

But that is by your right as DM in your decision. :)

Juda,

Please do not take this the wrong way, but did you read the replies to your OP?

You have issues with the +3 for class skills, but are ok with maxing out one skill with 4 ranks at 1st level. You do understand they are basically one in the same but just done a little differently, correct?

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

I have no issues on not being able to use the compartments in the same way with arrows (in being able to pull out without an action in combat). I was just curious if there was going to a ruling more favorable than the other, or if this is something that was already discussed and established in PFS, althought it appears this was not the case on the varying opinions.

What I may do, when (if) it becomes necessary, is take Will's recommendation in purchasing two. Although the next question would be is are there any penalties in carrying two quivers?

To Lazar, I can understand you reasoning in not allowing the other two compartments to be useable with arrows like the compartment designed for it, but you would not allow a character to move (bundled) arrows from the other compartments to the main arrow compartment as a move action? They would need to take off the quiver and dump it out?

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

No need to get snippy about it. It was a legitimate question as the compartments are bigger.

But thank you for your response.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

The text for the Efficient Quiver states:

It has three distinct portions, each with a nondimensional space allowing it to store far more than would normally be possible. The first and smallest one can contain up to 60 objects of the same general size and shape as an arrow. The second slightly longer compartment holds up to 18 objects of the same general size and shape as a javelin. The third and longest portion of the case contains as many as 6 objects of the same general size and shape as a bow (spears, staffs, or the like). Once the owner has filled it, the quiver can quickly produce any item she wishes that is within the quiver, as if from a regular quiver or scabbard.

Now please bear with me on why I am posting this in Pathfinder Society, instead of the Rules section, but the reason will be made clear in a moment.

My question is, are you able to put arrows in the other two compartments as well, and pull them out in the same manner as you would in the named (60) arrow compartment?

I have checked the FAQ for clarification (there is none) and have done a search on posts to see what others have said on the matter, there have been varying opinions, but in the end it says “DM’s decision”.

My problem with this, and why I have posted this here, is because this is for my PFS Ranger and I could varying rulings, from different GMs, from one session to another.

So I ask the PFS GMs, what is your consensus on this situation and how would you handle it?

I will be going to PaizoCon and then GenCon in August using my PFS Ranger, so I could very likely be at one of your tables. :)

CRobledo,

At 4th level, why not just skip getting a masterwork steel longsword and go with a mwk cold iron? It is only double the original price of the sword, which a 4th level Fighter can easily afford, and there is no drawback on using cold iron all the time. Also, it cuts down on having to carry an extra weapon.

Yes, there is a relatively expensive start up for enchanting it, but when you get to that point it shouldn’t be that much of a factor.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

So I take it you are buying a heavy steel shield? Yes, it would be 20 gp+10 gp for the spikes, and if you wanted to make it cold iron, you would double that for 60 gp.

Please note that if you wanted to make the shield masterwork, the masterwork cost is added after it’s doubled, not before.

And for the adamantine question, I am curious about this as well. I have a Ranger in PFS who went down the TWF route for his combat style and thinking about getting an adamantine weapon, also.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Sorry, but I assumed, that the contend of that particular bit were well known, if course I coulnd´t quote a source right now. To repeat myself, the section has good advice and some examples, but it contains nothing really new (but I guess the bit about upgrading might have been somewhat common knowledge on the boards, but now it is in print).

There is information on cooperative crafting in the CRB, but it is extremely brief. Basically it tells you that you can do cooperative crafting, and that one of you need to decide who will be considered the creator.

And now that I've received my PDF, it does detail it a bit more. Granted, not a lot, but more than what is said in the CRB.

In regards to the kingdom building, I cannot give an opinion on the overall system for it as I haven't read it in detail yet, but from what I have seen I will say one thing I don't like is you can't build unique structures.

Now it's just an "Inn", or a "Bank" or "Academy" and so on. It focuses on the overall kingdom, which is great, and it looks incredibly detailed, but I also would have liked the option of building unique structures, as well.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

There are three charts - two are wrong, very confusing, since those two agree LOL.

- Faction Guide Appendix 1, p54 - WRONG for fame 0-8 (it is too generous to lvl 1s with 0 fame)
- PFS Field Guide p3 - also wrong, same as above, 0-8 fame too generous for those with 0 fame, lvl 1

CORRECT:
- Guide to Organized Play p26. You have to have 5 Fame to buy from Faction, although chrnicles and 'Always Available' both still valid options at lvl 1 0 fame.

Ahh, I bet that's where I had gotten the 'chronicle sheet only' information from on purchasing items, when I was pre-5 fame.

So I thought "chronicle only" just was the way it was supposed to always be.

My fame is now 11, so I believe I can purchase up to a 1500 GP magic item.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Aegys,

What do you mean by "faction list?" The part about "capitalizing on his fame with his faction" means your fame needs to be a high enough level and the chart is in both the Guide to Organized Play as well as the Field Guide. I know it is at the beginning in the Field Guide, the first 5 pages or so.

BigNorseWolf, thanks!

I will let my friend know as well, he's been playing it incorrectly also.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Fame purchase and faction purpose are the same thing by different names.

Yes, you're locked into either always available, fame, or chronicle sheet.

Other always available things include mundane gear, alchemical items, and animals size large and smaller.

Ok, so just to be clear, you can purchase any magic item as long you have the fame and gold for it? It doesn't have to be listed on a previous chronicle sheet?

I had always thought you were not only limited by your fame level, but you needed to have picked it up as an option to buy on previous scenario (i.e. on your chronicle sheet).

For example, on a couple of scenarios, I've had the option to buy Cure Moderate Wounds potions as part of my reward. Until then, I had thought I could not buy CMW potions until it showed up on my chronicle sheet, but that's not the case? I could buy them at anytime, as long as I had the fame for it?

That question (like many that arose from the "any questions about magic item crafting" thread I started) is important enough that it belonged in the FAQ where everyone could read it, not in a book of campaign options that many people wouldn't know was the place to find rulings on how the default crafting system is supposed to work.

Point taken.

I guess I was just hoping for something in a little more in depth with the book than the short statement in the FAQ.

But thanks for the response.

The Magic Item explanation is pretty sweet. There is a section that describes how to craft cooperatively, and thank goodness it allows you to have another character supply spells that you don't possess when crafting magic items! However, only the person who actually has the item creation feat makes the Spellcraft check to finish the item.

It has a section describing the considerations one should take when creating a new magic item (such as why you should be paying more than 2,000 gp for a mace with a constant truestrike effect.

There are rules for upgrading existing magic items; it is basically a printed version of what the various developers have been saying for years; subtract current price from finished price and pay the difference.

The "arcane components" section is basically a set of alternate rules that a GM can use to add additional flavor to making magic items. It doesn't really give much guidelines and its probably the weakest piece of the Magic Items section. As someone else said, this one section reads very much as, "Dear GMs, use these rules if you want to place limits on what your PCs can craft."

Now that sounds great, especially emphasis mine. From what I had been told there was nothing describing cooperative crafting, I am so glad to hear there is some rules detailing it in the book.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Pages 170 to 175 cover magic item crafting and advice how to handel some cases, like a use activated true strike weapon, upgrading magic items and other cases. They showcase the idea of talismanic components, like dragon heartblood to craft a flaming weapon.

This isn't a more descriptive and clarified section on magic item creation. IIRC the GMG had something like that, or maybe it was UM.

Wow, that is really, really disappointing. By his own words when I spoke with him at GenCon, Sean indicated that the section would clarify the rules on magic item creation, including detailing what you can and can’t use an additional +5 DC.

At least Wealth per level for crafters addressed, that is one factor I’ve been a bit confused on. But from what I hearing about this section, very disappointing.

:(

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Couple of areas seem pretty lack luster though. The Magic item creation section for example seems to be mostly about "these are the reasons your DM is going to tell you NO"

Oh please don’t say that, one if the biggest things I’ve been looking forward to is a more descriptive and clarified section on magic item creation.

I hope there is a more detailed list on what you can take a +5 DC on and more detailed explanation on how cooperative crafting works.

Instead of just “yes, you can work with another person to craft a magic item.”

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Actually, you read more into my post than was actually there. Also formating for spoilers, or just about anything on these boards confuses me.

You could be right. Either way, it’s past now and getting off topic.

And for future reference, if you ever find the need to spoiler something, you type: [spoiler] your spoiler message [/ spoiler] Although there is no space between / and s.

As for Bonekeep, really looking forward to it, just hope my character doesn’t die before I make it. Will be going to PaizoCon as well and would like to be in 3-4 PFS events. Trying to catch up to a friend of mine!

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Agreed. And some great suggestions from both TetsujinOni and Victor, which I plan to follow.

Thanks!

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

I don't see how that spoiled anything for you. Did knowing that Quest for Perfection Part One was linked with Quest for Perfection Part Three make the adventures less fun for you?

No worries, not upset at all.

But it was a bit of a story spoiler revealing a

.

Like I said though, not upset, just please watch spoilers like that from now on. :)

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Many consumables are worth just having on hand, for that time that they do come up. They're pricey for purchase at low levels, but when you DO need them, they're priceless.

By level two, my characters usually have a silvered weapon, a cold iron weapon, ghost salts and air crystals. They don't come up much, but I damn well want to make sure I have them when they do.

Question, would you say it is better to save up for a +1 weapon (Bastard Sword or even Composite Longbow) or to spend money on the ghost salts, cold iron (Bastard sword and arrows) or any other worthwhile consumables?

This is for my PFS Ranger, he is 3rd level now.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Wait, so will we be able to complete the Pathfinder mission in Bone Keep, which I assume is to kill the villain revealed in Day of the Demon? Or will we only be able to get part of the way to said villain? The only reason I want to play Bonekeep is because of the PFS story line in it, if I can't complete it, I probably won't risk my character's life.

If tickets for the special sell out, will Paizo seat any more tables, or are we just out of luck?

There is always risk to die in any of the scenarios (I’ve died twice), but especially more so in Ruins of Bonekeep. I have not seen specific info on the scenario, but from what I read it is not uncommon for 1 or 2 characters dying.

So if you want to be more careful with your character and have more assurance of not dying, you may not want Ruins of Bonekeep.

But that being said, I don’t want to discourage anyone from trying it because it sounds like a lot of fun! There is an option to back out anytime during the scenario (except in combat) if things are becoming too hairy for you.

Is it already sold out? I know in previous years Paizo has added tables, especially for the large special events, so you may be ok. But if you want to try RoB, I would buy tickets now if they are still available. You can always change your mind later and get your money back/credit.

One last thing, please spoiler from now on in regards to story related issues for scenarios, I did not know that

was linked with Ruins of Bonekeep.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Ok, thanks for the suggestion, will have to look into that later (don’t have the Field Guide easily accessible now).

Do you know what the price is by chance?

It’s too bad the weapon blanching is not all that useful for melee weapons.

Edit: Thanks for the link!

Ouch, that one is expensive, but worth it if you know you are going against incorporeal creatures.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Ok, maybe I am putting in the wrong keywords (typed in ghost salt), but I can’t find info on ghost salt. What is it?

I’m guessing it is some sort of ghost touch ability?

Also, I only saw options on weapon blanching with adamantine, silver and cold iron.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

The special will probably be above average for how tough season 4 was. Which is quite frankly a little scary.

Agree with Jeff, get to level 4 to mitigate some risk.

And make sure you bring cold iron weapons and weapon blanche for arrows. I have this feeling you may encounter a demon or two. :)

Thanks for the reminder on the cold iron, will be purchasing for my Ranger.

cruise, just a suggestion, if either yourself, gf or her brother use arrows and you decide to go with the cold iron option, it is cheaper to buy the arrows outright than purchasing Weapon Blanch as long as you have the carrying capacity.

20 cold iron arrows = 2 gp
20 arrows using Weapon Blanch = 40 gp

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Ok, thanks.

For some reason I had just assumed it would be the case. Although from what I recall, the special from 2011 didn’t have a second night, either.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

I registered for a total of 6 PFS events, including the Friday special and both parts of Ruins of Bonekeep (will drop out of part 2 if we advance in the special).

Really looking forward to RoB, I hear it can be extremely challenging!

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Ok, thanks.

And I shouldn’t say it’s happened that way every time on when I’ve received my subscriptions (shipping at the end of the week), it probably just feels that way. :)

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

With my luck, established in previous releases, mine probably won’t ship until the end of the week.

Liz or Sara-Marie, are shipments done alphabetically?

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Ok, so playing the scenarios won't have a bearing on me then.

As for the changes on playing up/down, I just remember reading on one of the threads in the PFS forums that people were unhappy with the changes on fame and how it would affect playing down (in it not being beneficial anymore).

But the thread didn't mention anything on what the changes were.

Thanks for the reply.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

So I take it that 'Lots' is the same idea as 'Stronghold Spaces' from 3.0?

How big is a Lot? I just picture a palace being much bigger than 4x the size of a bank.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Adrian,

Yes, I understand that the original 'Epic' rules are still in the CRB and it may be something that we still use with our characters to fight those 30+ CR creatures.

However, my point was that I felt the Mythic Tiers should have covered this on their own. In that you wouldn't need to supplement the brief Epic rules in the CRB to do so.

However, as I said before, I am by no means making any final judgement on Mythic Adventures. I still plan on purchasing the book and I am sure we will be using it with our campaign. But there are just a few things I wish would have increased as well, and just didn't stop because you are taking Mythic Tiers now.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

So I heard with some of the new changes it becomes disadvantageous to play down a tier? How so?

And if you are part of the two factions that are being disbanded, is it pretty important you get into those ending scenarios?

I am part of Cheliax, so I don’t believe it will affect me, but I’m just a bit curious how it affects PFS, besides just the factions no longer being viable.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

So what’s your point? That a character with 10 Mythic Tiers is more powerful than someone with 0? I would certainly hope so.

And not really here to argue with you about ‘feeling among the best on different planes’ as it’s subjective. It’s just a feeling that I had, but you are welcome to disagree.

But, barring any misunderstandings in what James was saying, being around the power level of a CR 25 with 20 character levels and 10 Mythic levels is not what I had in mind.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

It's a conclusion reached from a post by James Jacobs in his "ask anything" thread. Though I believe that particular point was that a mythic tier is worth half a CR, not that they're worth half a level - the discussion came about when James off-handedly said that a 20th level character with 10 tiers is CR 25, in response to a question, and clarified that they had reassessed how much of a challenge mythic tiers represented. There is certainly a reasonable corollary to tiers only being counted as half a level for APL calculations, but that has not been explicitly stated as far as I know.

This is somewhat borne out by the fact that Jason (I believe it was in his own "ask anything" thread, but might have been in the Mythic Playtest forums) said that James had revealed something which had not been specifically revealed by the design team (the phrase "talking out of turn" springs to mind, but that may well just be me paraphrasing), which suggests that there may be more to the matter than James described.

In a sense that is worse then. When I first looked at the Mythic playtest one of the things I didn’t like about it is you didn’t feel ‘Mythic’. Sure, there were some really nice abilities, but there wasn’t any (or very little of) those uber abilities that made you feel on your way to standing among the best on different planes.

But with what JJ said on equivalent CR, that makes sense then on how I interpreted the strength of your mythic character. What doesn’t make sense though is I thought these characters would be able to challenge CRs in the 30s? Like the Four Horsemen or Arch Devils, for example. But having a power level somewhat in the area of CR 25, not sure how you would be able to do that.

But again, not making any final judgments until I can see the completed product.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

They are separate.

Yeah, that's what I was afraid of.

That is one of the things I didn't like what I read from the the Mythic playtest rules, it doesn't increase your existing abilities. No caster level increase, no increase in established feats, abilities, etc.

Yes, you get new ones, but I would like it if you were actually considered '30' levels of your character, not 20 character levels and 10 Mythic tiers. I understand not increasing skill points, and even saving throws, but I feel the rest should have been increased.

But I am willing to keep an open mind and looking forward to reading the full rules and changes that were made from the playtest rules.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Yeah, the games will be pretty specific because I don't want to take scenarios that I have signed up for GenCon (I would rather play them with my friend).

So PFS events are not lottery based then? That is one of the reasons why I was asking if I could sign-up onsite.

Thanks for the replies.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

I just LOVE Ambrose. And it's awesome hearing we will be seeing more menial figures in the coming sets. We do a lot of RPing in our campaigns, so we need the normal NPCs as well!

And is that a butcher knife on Ambrose's side?

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

I am hearing event registration is going to open up closer towards the end of May, so I will know by that time what events I will have (successfully) registered for GenCon and which ones I won't.

I was just wondering if PaizoCon was more flexible at the time of the events on getting in (more so than GenCon).

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Do Mythic tiers contribute to character levels?

For example, if you have an ability/feat that increases with your character level, do your Mythic tiers count as well, or are they completely separate?

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

This is my first PaizoCon, and I would think PFS events would be easy enough to get into, but I’m not sure how much in demand they are.

I know at GenCon they sell out unless you are lucky enough to get in with a generic. Yes, Paizo always does a great job getting generics in, but it’s still more demanding that I would prefer, so I always want to get the actual event tickets.

Are PFS events easier to get into at PaizoCon? Can I walk up to the PFS area and immediately sign up for an PFS scenario? Or is it luck of the draw with PaizonCon’s version of generics?

One of the reasons I am asking is event sign up for GenCon is this week, and I have picked my PFS events (for my wishlist). I am trying to coordinate in not having the same scenario for my character (as I know it is not allowed) between the two cons.

Yes, I could start up a new character, but I am actually trying to catch up to a friend of mine who is 3-4 experience points ahead of me, he will be going to GenCon with me and I would like to be even with him, or at least close.

Of course if I die, the point is all moot, anyways. :)

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

When should subscribers have access to the PDF?

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

All of this info excites me, I’ve been looking forward to this book for a long time now.

The only thing I am leery about is the ability to swap feats. How is this different than the Fighter’s class ability to do so? I hope this doesn’t overshadow a class ability.

And to say this one takes more time than a Fighter doing it on the fly (when he levels) I don’t feel is enough of a differential, unless the time is substantial. I’m curious to see how this is handled.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

1 person marked this as a favorite.

With already being part of the Pathfinder miniature line, contributed to Reaper KS, not sure if I will do so with this, especially considering it’s metal. (Would have preferred plastic).

Although I do love my Tome of Horrors Complete. :)

Profession -

I'm changing the oil so the engine doesn't blow up.
Why will it blow up?
Because it needs oil!
Why does it need oil?
So it won't blow up!

Knowledge -
If we don't put oil in the engine the pistons will generate too much heat from friction that would lead to catastrophic system failure.
Where do we put the oil in?
I'm not sure, let's see if its labeled.

An engineer is not clueless. He is going to know why his engine needs oil and what will happen to his engine if it doesn’t get it.

What he won’t know is why the engine works the way it does. Why exactly the engine is able to go 150 mph, how are the brakes constructed to allow him to stop ‘x’ distance from the station.

An engineer can run the engine (and that includes rudimentary knowledge on how it works), but he won’t be able to design and build one.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Oh, right. I had forgotten there was a singular Goblin Dog in RotRL already, I had thought it only had a rider.

As long as there are both colors, I am ok with this.

And the white dragons look great!

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Why was the color of the Goblin Dog changed to a lighter color? I liked the brown established in RotRL and also in this set with the goblin sitting on it.

We do not have any current plans to do any Colossal "miniatures". :)

That's really disappointing to hear. Unless you have some hidden meaning with miniatures being in quotes.

Was it ever clarified if you need to actually hold and activate this everytime you want to use it?

It says "the bearer" and that you treat it as a "spell on your known spell list", which would make me think no, but I'm really not sure.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

From what I looked at of the playtest book, I was a bit disappointed in how it turned out.

I understood that some of the numbers would not be increasing when taking Mythic levels, but I didn’t think none of them would. I think the only thing that still increases is the stat increases.

I really feel caster level should still go up as well as skill points.

Now, that was an early version of the playtest, I understand there have been a lot of changes.

Either way, still keeping an open mind and will still be purchasing the book.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Ok, that’s great. I can live with 6 pages. :)

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Sean,

Are you able to say how much space has been allocated to clarification of magic item creation?

I noticed you mentioned in another thread about it being 'limited space'. I am hoping that is just a general mention of all of the book has finite (limited) space for different topics, than the magic item clarifications actually having a small amount of space.

As you well know, there have been a lot of questions posed over the years, as well as in the thread you dedicated asking what needs to be addressed. I understand you are not able to address all of what was asked in that thread, but I hope it does get at least a couple of pages in the book and not just a sidebar on one page.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

When I spoke with SRM (Stephen-Radney MacFarland) at GenCon last August, he indicated the Stealth rules are not abandoned, just taking longer than anticipated. They were finding the current changes (on the Stealth blog) were not working as well as they liked, conflicting with other class abilities.

For example, he said the changes did not work well with the Ranger’s HiPS. However, he stressed it is something they are still working on, but there is no ETA at the moment.

Now that was 8 months ago, so who knows how that has changed. They could have possibly abandoned it by now.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Deluxe Comics, Battles Case Subscriber

Sean, will this be one of the things clarified in Ultimate Campaign? What is involved in upgrading the CL of magic items?
