Various monsters, depicted in the style of the warrior fighting them. One Taldan Knight fights with a mace, his broken sword laying on the ground besides him fights a red skinned, heavily horned, hoof-footed demon. Another Mwangi tribal warrior thrusts a spear at a shadow with glowing eyes and bloody claws. Another, possibly Osirion, possibly Qadiran or even some other similar people displays a warrior fighting with only a dagger against a flame, giant and cruel. It lashes at him, and tries to surround. On closer inspection, one can find the hints of many other in battle, neither side winning. At first it seems to be paying homage to battle itself, but for those that have the wisdom to see beyond the obvious, it is really meant to remind that victory comes from sacrifice and endurance, and that no foe, or league of foes is insurmountable.</i></p>

As we complete the sanctioned material we get the chronicle sheet for that area, which I think is one chronicle per book. We can then apply that chronicle to one of our appropriate PFS characters.</p>Maybe as Endless Forms about it. He is running Shattered Star for me and a few others.

<p>I don't get why they did that, where it looks like you can not just play through it. So might have to scrap that idea.

You will still get the 1 XP and possible 2PP, take a small cut in GP, (but will still get more than other players of lower level) and because you are higher level, the scenario will be less of a direct threat to you specifically, but more challenging to the lower level characters.</p>
<p>The only real change from previous season's rules is the Out of Tier gold. Before you simply got GP based on what Subtier you played. Now they added the Out of Tier GP reward. So for example if there where Subters (1-2), (3-4), and (6-7)</p>
<p>old
<br />
(1-2) = 500 GP
<br />
(3-4) = 1,000 GP
<br />
(6-7) = 3,000 GP</p>
<p>vs</p>
<p>new
<br />
(1-2) = 500 GP
<br />
<span class=messageboard-ooc>Out of Tier = (500 + 1,000 = 1,500 /2 =) 750</span>
<br />
(3-4) = 1,000 GP
<br />
<span class=messageboard-ooc>Out of Tier = (1,000 + 3,000 = 4,000 /2 =) 2,000</span>
<br />
(6-7) = 3,000 GP</p>
<p>So before, assuming you played a Level 7 in a Subtier (3-4), you would have walked away with 1,000 GP. Now you would walk away with 2,000. These are just made up numbers for simplicity, not that actual amounts, and there is nothing on the Chronicle Sheet you are missing out on that you couldn't just buy from Fame anyway.</p>I'm not sure what you mean?

<p>It's looking like the groups is lacking in both Arcane and Divine Magic, (Magus is more of a direct damage class than a caster). So either way, and both are very skill heavy which is good.</p>
