<p>for the chronicle sheets, you gain access to the different shards that you gain access to in the books. Retaining the shards in the adventure bestows a curse that persists until the proper ioun stone is procured to be slotted into it and remove the curse. On the chronicle sheet, it tells of a curse for each of the shards. Does buying those ioun stones used in the adventure also get rid of the effect or am I doomed to a super-prideful character forever?</p>I'm not sure if this is the place to ask this question but...

I'm GMing, and my players are partway through the first book. (They've just recovered the first shard.) One of my players is playing a druid, and she feels she hasn't been terribly effective to date, since it's been an urban adventure so far. She's hoping the game goes out into the wilderness more.

<p>Does anyone have advice on how best to play a druid in a dungeon? Are there particular spells that are more useful, or a feat she should take? Should I advise her to refocus her PC as a cave druid or urban druid? (I'm willing to let her respec, within limits.)</p>

It still doesn't fit in my brain why they would ever deviate from a standard mapping approach. I've seen a variety of large maps in Paizo products that were not 10 ft squares. The logic of changing a standard because the map is too big doesn't work for me. It seems like there would be a better solution to dealing with large maps than changing the mapping standard. Yes, they have to fit it all in one book with a set amount of pages dedicated to specific elements, but maps are pretty important in the scheme of things. </p>

This isn't anything new, and it's never really bothered people before. I play online as well as in person, and I still don't find it an issue at all. If you're using a program like Maptools or something, you can pretty easily stretch it so that each square of the file map is 4 squares of the Maptools grid, but I don't know what program you're using.
<p>It's not an inconsistency either. When the dungeon would be too big to fit on a map due to its size (comes up often when the primary inhabitants are giants or the like), they compensate by using a different scale. The writers don't just randomly decide to make every fourth map or so use a different scale for no reason.</p>Christopher Hamilton wrote:I feel it significantly detracts from the ability to prepare and use the maps and hence run the adventure.

<p>What me and my group have been doing is rotating through GMs who run different APs. We introduce characters with their own history and stories that last beyond their APs. Then after the AP is done then a different GM decides how to introduce the elements that carry through to the next campaign and if Paizo produces something that disagrees then (sorry Paizo) but forget what they have listed as canon and change/mold the story around advancing the ideas from the previous campaign. Even when the campaign was a homebrew, we had the setting clearly defined in Golarion, and those characters might make a reappearance.</p>

It is superb in the grand tradition of Iconic dungeon delves. Truly a fun masterpiece. Just goes to show that the creative juices are as fresh as ever at Paizo. Well done gang, really wish I could ever had played through this one. Nice start to Shattered Star.</p>Just finished reading through this. I almost always read all of the first adventure and none of the last in an AP. Low level adventuring is just more fun IMO. I have to say with it's 80+ rooms this is the mega dungeon of low level play and I love it. I would run this as a starter for virtualy any starting campaign set in varisia.

We've already got a precedent for it with djezeteel from Dungeons of Golarion (Yes, it was made by a crazy powerful technomage, not counting that).</p>I know it would be entirely unofficial, but are any of the writers for the skymetal section in the back of the book able to comment on what it would take (Possibly a Craft: Weapons and Craft: Alchemy check) to make djezet-alloyed weapons/armor and if so, what would they do?
