I'd take either Weapon 6 (Force Sling +3) or Blessing 5 (of Sivanah) if either goes unclaimed, but primarily for trading, so consider this a very low priority.
Loot: For this scenario, I'll be taking Elemental Treaty and not Remove Curse. I'm also potentially interested in either Pharaoh's Key or Game of Afterlife, depending on what my trading options are.
I'm also interested in Akhentepi's Armor to fill a new loot Armor card feat slot until there's an Armor 6 available.
Qualzar will be going to Ghoul Market.
Nope

For Scenario 3-6C: THE RIGHT COMBINATION...
Tier Progression: (6.3) Estra gains a Hero Point, and expends it to gain the following Skill Feat...
Wisdom d10 ☑ +1 ☑ +2 ☑ +3 ☑ +4
Estra now has 3 Hero Points.
Scenario Reward: I recommend someone else take the loot.
Deck Upgrade Preferences:
Estra will go to Sunburst Market for the next scenario.
Hero Point: Spend on Skill Feat: WIS
Deck Upgrade: Interested in Weapon 6 (Wandcaster Bow) almost entirely for trading fodder. Low priority.
Loot: In addition to my usuals, I'll probably take Remove Curse and I'm interested potentially taking one of the damage mitigating items (Pharaoh's Key or Cartouche of Protection) or Game of Afterlife for anti-curse (I'm slightly better at recharging it than Qualzar and can guarantee recharge if I have my headband or mask)
Trader: I remember Sunburst Market changed, but I can't remember how. Is there a list of available boons/Am I allowed to look at that before choosing which trader?
If I'm not allowed to look/there's nothing I want, I'll go to Hadden Hoppert
Sunburst is now tier 0 but not basic boons from MM.

Feel free to look. I made a post earlier in Discussion capturing some of the options, but you can look at the PACG Wiki or a physical MM box (if you have it) for more options.
Basically, the Core rules means that any AD0 card is "Basic" for the purposes of Sunburst Market. However, it's been confirmed that you cannot trade for a card that's not in the vault, and Basics and Elites of most AD#s have been removed from the vault right now due to Card Guild Guide rules.
(Vic, curiously, did certainly say that you can take Loot options that aren't in the Vault, so the Loot Elemental Treaty and Loot Remove Curse is fine.)
I'll head to Hadden Hoppert for my Trader
Rolling off with Qualzar over the Rhino Hide Armor.
Looks like upgrades are
Darago: Weapon 6
Estra: Spell 4
Lini: Armor 5
Qualzar: Blessing 5
Skizza: none
I think the loot and trading conflicts are all resolved?
Actually the rolloff was for the trader. But since I've been visiting the armorer so often it's actually a good idea to upgrade my armor to Helm of Electric Radiance and trade that in at the trader.
An update - I know I've not posted much. After a week of overwork, I've now been sick for a full weekend and still am. No certainty as to my next post, I'm sorry.

For Scenario 3-6D: AHRIMAN TRANSCENDENT...
Tier Progression: (6.4) Estra gains a Hero Point, and saves it.
Estra now has 3 Hero Points.
Scenario Reward: Estra picks a Spell to add to the Acquired Cards list (Dune of Doom - Spell 5).
Deck Upgrade Preferences:
Estra will go to Sunburst Market for the next scenario.
I'd like an extra Spell for the Scenario Reward.
I've got a couple upgrade options. I'll look closer once we have a definitive list of what is available.
I'll go to Hadden Hoppert for my trader.
Lini would like a spell 6 pulled. Upgrading Breath of Life to Rejuvenation.
Visiting the Ghoul Market.
Qualzar is hoping for Armor 6 (Robe of Vision) and Item 6 (Pearl of Magic). I technically could take Blessing 6 (of Nethys) or Weapon 6 (Force Sling +3) but almost entirely for trade value.
I'll be going to Hadden Hoppert.
Loot: I'm only interested in the Khepresh of Refuge if I don't get an Armor 6 upgrade.
I won't be taking Akhentepi's Armor or Pharaoh's Key, and I'll be taking Remove Curse in place of Elemental Treaty.
I could take Scarab of Mummy Defense- someone should. Someone with a better WIS/Divine should probably take Hand of the Honest Man?
ADDITIONAL ACQUIRED CARDS (Scenario Reward):
Lini: Icy Prison (Spell 5)
Darago: Vision (Spell 5)
Skizza: Bottled Lightning (Item 5)
Lini isn't upgrading. She can take Hand of the Honest Man if we want her to trade out Magnetic Grimoire or Binder's Tome.
Deck Upgrade: I'll take one of the Spell 5s for Icy Prison
Loot: I'll keep Mask of the Forgotten Pharaoh and Game of Afterlife.
I can also take Elemental Treaty. Since there's only one location, It'll last us the entire scenario.
I'm not taking the Cartouche of Protection, so I should be keeping my Magnetic Grimoire/Binders Tome. Lini should be safe trading out the same one I keep.
Storing the hero point. I'll take Hand of the Honest Man.
DECK UPGRADE SUMMARY
Skizza - None(?)
Estra - Spell 6, Spell 5
Qualzar - Armor 6, Item 6
Lini - None.
Darago - Spell 5
No problem; Skizza gets the Item 5!
Saving the hero point. No upgrades. Visiting the Ghoul Market.
No upgrades for Qualzar. I'll go to Hadden Hoppert. Qualzar will trade for Key to the Second Vault at Sunburst Market, for those Conflagrations.
For loot: I won't be taking Remove Curse or Scarab of Mummy Defense.
With the necessity of acquiring allies, I could swap in Crown of Charisma, which autosucceeds a Diplomacy check, with the idea of handing it off to Darago or Skizza. Would that be of interest?
No Upgrades. Stashing Hero Point.
I'll keep Mask of the Forgotten Pharaoh and Game of Afterlife. I'm not taking Elemental Treaty this time.
Going to Hadden Hoppert for my trader. Hopefully I'm able to get a big nuke spell.
I'm going to switch my Trader to Sunburst Market and grab a Blessing of Abadar
Thank you all for an incredible campaign! And doublethanks to Yewstance, for balancing the dual player/BR role during the second half.
I had started this game concurrently with playing Amaryllis in a Season of the Righteous game, way back in Outpost I (my first PACS/PbP experiences). And for a little bit I was wondering if I should have reversed it: whether it was a mistake to play Qualzar in a MM-based campaign, where it felt so many monsters were Mental-immune. But especially after I took the Impeller role, I had no regrets. (And for her part, Amaryllis and her rerolls were a great fit for WotR's high-stakes encounters. Plus Qualzar's Knowledge was great in MM, whereas Amaryllis's Fortitude was nice for WotR.)
And Qualzar was such a hoot to play, even when we were dealing with crashing sky-pyramids or city-destroying monsters. Thank you all for putting up with my irreverence!
I discovered that as good as adding 1d4 +4 to all of my checks is, Having access to good cards is even better. The Druid class deck is so bad.
Woot! Good job everyone! Thanks for a great campaign!
When we started (I can't believe that was almost 2 years ago!) this was my first long-term PBP experience and Darago was my first long-term PBP character. It's kind of bittersweet now that its over.
