Improvements for Chronicle Sheets in future seasons?

Silver Crusade 4/5

I've seen some threads that have touched on this, but I'm curious to know if the Paizo developers plan on any interesting Chronicle Sheet changes in the near future.

I've only played for the last several months and I've found most of the sheets to be a bit underwhelming and often filled with items that for the character would already be considered quite mundane (does he really need to have a CMW potion listed when he's 3+ levels up?)

I understand it adds a bit of flavor to the scenario to note what was found and that it allows the player to buy an item that perhaps he does not yet have enough fame for.

It would be very nice if there were more items offered, even if they were a limit of 1 (but preferably not!) that are at a higher caster level and/or have limited charges so they're cheaper.

And, I know this has been brought up before, but any chance of items being offered at a discount from the sheet?

What scenarios have you played? Season 4 and 5 frequently have interesting boons and items on the Chronicle sheets.

I frequently jump around scenarios, so a lot of 0-3 year scenarios. Perhaps the later years are a bit better, but I've seen the same type of thing on those later years as well. I guess, if anything, I'd like to encourage the developers to stay on that track.

And, yes, I've found most of the boon really lacking. Like how useful is a +2 CHA check for a certain race in a certain mountain range? What's the likelihood that the character will happen to be there again (especially when jumping around scenarios over 5 years or so)? And, that boon itself is kind of blah. Why wouldn't it be +5 or +8? Heck, if the party made such an impression on those dwarves, why would that only improve a CHA check by 10%?

Prethen,
how many season 5 scenarios have you played/GMed. The current season is doing a great job of presenting PCs with stuff that might actually be useful (such as partially charged wands, potions with higher caster levels, etc).

It is only at the lowers sub-tiers that we are still seeing things like Pearls of Power or Cloaks of Resistence +1 (when they can actually be useful items to have on chronicles!)

Silbeg, don't forget that the form itself has been renovated for season five with a larger reporting area for both GMs and players.

Silbeg, I'll need to re-examine the sheets I have.
