I think you only have 5xp from Ith's adventures (Beggar's Pearl, Pallid Plague, Bloodcove Disguise Part I & Part II, Slave Pits of Absalom), but you need 6xp to hit 3rd level; had you played any PFS games with Alie not with Ith?
Dumping Con as a synthesist is very dangerous; if you drop unconscious (from hp loss) whilst wearing your suit, the loss of Con will essentially guarantee instant death.
Dumping the other physical stats is perfectly fine, though ;-)
------------------------
If you really want to, you can 'break' the game with almost any class; synthesists just make it ridiculously easy to create a pouncing, multiple-attack-based, high-AC skill monster.
Having said that, if you know what you are doing, you can make an alchemist/ranger that is just as bad, fantastic archers, or 'nova' magi, to list a few examples.
Sekhemre cleans-off his claws on the Gnolls hide, as best he can.
He then turns to the slaves.
"Shall we release them? I know slavery is legal here, but the Gnoll and his crew were not exactly operating legally... Still, I don't want to get in trouble with the authorities..."
Craft(Alchemy): 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16.
That... was a shocking roll :-(
DM Ithuriel:
I just thought I should check, but I am fairly certain I have collected the four identities that I need for my faction mission, correct?
Sekhemre casts a careful eye over both slaves, before adding conversationally, "Now now, she may be from the East, but I dare say you got her at a bargain price - she has the look of a peasant used to hard work in the fields; just look at those calluses! She would be worth barely a tenth of your asking price."
In case it is unclear, I am working on the assumption that haggling *will* occur - I realise I made a 'low' counter-offer ;-)
Sorry for dropping off the radar for a while; I lost my internet connection, and only just managed to re-instate it :-/ Everything should be normal from now on, though :-)
"Well, would you like it to be unlocked? I can arrange it... Failing that, we can see whether there is a more secluded back door that I could try to open..."
"One still has to wonder, however, whether, if he was not caught in the thrall of Grit, he would still have engaged in such acts... Addiction can do terrible things to a person...
...Still, I agree; it would probably be best if we moved on..."
"Indeed. Who hired you to kidnap Lady Salhar, and whom did you sell her to? I would rather we settled this amicably, but it might be difficult to hold Kayluss here back... If you tell us what you know, it should be easier to do that..."
@Mothman: No, you are remembering correctly; back in the first year of PFS, they did have faction-specific lists of magical items that you could access at certain 'prestige point' levels. However, at the commencement of the second year of PFS, they scrapped that it favor of a 'simplified' PP = magic item GP cap system.
@Mothman: The 'boons you can spend fame points on from your faction' were never in the PFSOP document; they were introduced (along with vanities) in the PFS Field Guide. Maybe you are thinking of the Faction Traits, which have always been in the PFSOP document?
Sekhemre spends his time quietly relaxing, enjoying the opportunity to finally rest his feet comfortably after so long, in a location that does not stink of sweat, or the sea.
When the duo come up to the table, he eyes them speculatively, but when it becomes clear that they are known to Wadi, he relaxes once again, politely listening, when he is not going to the bar for a refill...
This is a little embarrassing, but because there was a significant hiatus in this group, I thought it might be defunct... so I went and played another game ('We Be Goblins'), the cert for which I applied to Sekhemre, which means that he is now 3rd level.
Sorry for the delay; I did not notice that I had missed a large number of posts; it had been so long, I had lost dots to tell me how many 'new' posts there were :-/
