[PFS/DMK/EMS] The Emerald Spire Superdungeon

Game Master Kludde

I also need time to update this weekend.

Revisiting this.

[8]....Level 9: The Spire Axis........7-9....[normal]
[9]....Level 10: The Magma Vault......8–10...[slow]
[9.5]..Level 11: The Tomb of Yarrix...8–10...[slow]
[10]...Level 12: The Automaton Forge..9–11...[slow]
[10.5].Level 13: The Pleasure Gardens.9–11...[slow]
[11]...Level 14: The Throne of Azlant.10–12..[normal]
[12]...Level 15: Order and Chaos......10–12..[normal]
[13]...Level 16: The Emerald Root.....11–13..[normal]

So in order to play eyes of the ten you have to be at level 12 exactly, correct? If that is the case we need to do slow the rest of the way through, including this level.

Or did I miss something.

Nope, you are right..crap, I forgot about that. I'm glad you caught it Bruce...

Yep...thx Bruce. So from here on out we level every other time, right?

You are right. I cannot amend the chronicles right now (see previous post), but I will do so when I get the chance. In the meantime, you can just use the numbers for slow track.

Let me sticky that post of yours in the campaign tab.

Hmmm. I'm at 23 XP now. Level 12 is 33 XP.

I was supposed to play Serpent's Rise or whatever the Aspis scenario is called, and insert it before we finished tower level 9, and I went to character level 8. But we are still in the middle of that and now I can't apply the pregen's XP to Jelani. If I did that, it would look like this:

[20]....Before Finish Level 9....[slow]
[21]....Pregen EXP
[22.5]....Level 9: The Spire Axis........7-9....[slow]
[24]....Level 10: The Magma Vault......8–10...[slow]
[25.5]..Level 11: The Tomb of Yarrix...8–10...[slow]

[31.5]...Level 15: Order and Chaos......10–12..[slow]
[33]...Level 16: The Emerald Root.....11–13..[slow]

So...I need to apply the Aspis chronicle predating the one for Emerald Spire level 9 for this to work. I also need to take slow for level 9. Can we wait for that? Not sure how much longer we have to finish the Aspis scenario, Kludde.

You're on table I, which is lagging behind a bit. I'm not sure if people here want to wait for 2 weeks.

I see a couple of options:

(1) Wait with level 9 until the start of PbP gameday (Half september), so that the pregen game can finish.
(2) Run an in-between scenario next. A nice tier 5-9 or 7-11 should do the trick. Everybody else would have to play another character or a pregen. How about the newest season 7 scenario?

I'd be up for option 2! :)

Option 2 sounds fine to me ...
... so we all did slow for the last one then?

Looks like I leveled up too quickly...so we should be back to level 8, right?

Yea, back to eight. Makes me wish I had a character I could use for a scenario. Option 2 sounds good either way to me if that I'd what we need to make sure jelani can apply the chronicle.

I'm also fine with 2. Got plenty of characters lying around. Also I sm on fast track. I just used pregens for two levels do I just became lvl 8 (yay lvl 4 spells)

Ok, I've just downloaded the scenario. Let's run it here as a kind of special 'Jelani: Origins' session.

I've put the xp requirements in the campaign tab (as long as you don't exceed them, you're fine for 33 xp at the end).

What characters do we have for 7-04? Who is bringing a pregen, who is playing his own character?

--
Jelani -> Jelani
Asuna ->
Thistle ->
Bruce ->
Fellgrim ->
Caranthir ->
---

Fellgrim will be played by Oloch, Warpriest of Gorum (PreGen 7) to be applied to Dvalin Stormforge (147934-1) when he gets to 7.

Bruce will be play by this guy, because the party needs more Gorum.

I need to spend some money I guess. Can you pay the difference to upgrade a magical item, or do you have to sell it for half price and then buy the better item?

I need a slow track chronicle for tower level 9 for Jelani.

Wait....fast track is 4 XP now? Is slow track 2 XP? -confused- Didn't it used to be 3 XP and 1.5 XP for a level of the tower?

Fast track is 3 xp and slow is 1 1/2 since these count as modules. For a regular scenario it's 1xp and slow is 1/2.

You can pay the difference to upgrade a magical item. For example I just upgraded my headband of charisma from +2 to a +4 by paying the difference of 12000 gold.
If you have further questions there is a sticky post that explains it here.

Thanks. Kludde marked 4 XP on my tower level 9 chronicle, so I was confused :P

Edit:I guess taking slow track for level 9, I don't really have enough gold for any major upgrades. I'll hold off on the shopping until after we play scnario 7-1.

So I knew there was something up, couldn't put my finger on it this weekend until now.

I do have a level 8 character that I was actually planning on using in #7-04, however he was planned to play it on PbP with my main online gaming group.

I hope this doesn't mess everyone up, but if the plan is for 7-04, I will have to step aside so I can play it with my main group.

That shouldn't be a big deal for me, I can just wait patiently for Emerald Spire to kick back in, as long as you are able to find a 6th.

Let me know what is going on, and if I need to do some fancy maneuvering to help out, I will figure something out.

Just use a pregen...I may need to do the same.

Its not about pregens - its about playing the scenario. I can't play the scenario (with any character/pregen) and be able to play it again with my 'main' group.

Sorry, reading comprehension not online this early...

Got it!

Alternatively, we can try and find a scenario that everyone can play:

Here is a spreadsheet (link). Please pick a column, put your name at the top, and fill out a '0', '1', or '2' for every adventure listed (actually, only for the 5-9 and 7-11 adventures that are there, but I've listed all of them for the completionists among you).

0: I can't or don't want to play this scenario (for whatever reason)
1: I could play this one
2: I could play this one, and I actually have a preference for this one.

It pays off to put a '2' somewhere, as they help to break ties.

My own list does not reflect the same: for me, a '1' means I have the scenario in my possession already, '2' means I have it and I've never GM'ed it yet.

Ok - added my stuff. Turns out our group won't be able to play Of Kirin and Kraken, or Valley of Veiled Flame from season 6 - so I would particularly enjoy getting a chance at one of those two. Lots of others that I am perfectly ok on.

If we can finish up before September 19th, I will use my ninja - if not, I will just use a PreGen. I can pick any pregen really, so whatever fits the party's "needs".

If we can finish up before September 19th.

That'll be pretty hard for a high tier scenario, I'm afraid.

No worries, pregen it is! I'll peruse the list and see if I find anything fun...

To bad I can't use the illusionist aspis wizard... he was fun. :)

What class have I never tried before? /thinking cap

Ok - I will use Shardra - the level 7 Shaman Pregen and apply it to Pooka Bladespinner - 133958-1 (he is currently level 4...)

I've filled out the sheet...should be fairly accurate.

Though does anyone else have trouble remembering everything they have played?

Entered my info as well, tried to focus on the 5-9 and 7-11 scenarios.

I'm fine with anything. I have a lot of trouble with that Caranthir, but I've mostly played pre-season 5 stuff so we should be fine with something newer.

Filled in my stuff for those which were still an option. Unfortunately already done valley of the veiled flame.

Gonna play my new rogue btw. He got to lvl 7 thanks to plunder and peril ^^.

Ok, looks like we have the following candidates:

1 50 Fortune's Blight 5-9
1 56 Jester's Fraud 5-9
2 3 Rebels' Ransoms 5-9
3 10 Immortal Conundrum 5-9
4 17 Tower of Ironwood watch 5-9

Bruce has indicated 4-17 and 1-56 as preferable, and I'm slightly partial to running newer scenarios (so I'd prefer 4-17 over 1-56 if they're tied). Jelani, have you played any of these five?

Nope. Let’s do 4-17.

Sounds good to me!

Works for me!

I do think I'll have to use a pregen since my higher-levels are currently occupied. I'll fill in with whatever looks needed.

Ready and waiting. Thanks for running this Kludde.

I just found out I made RPG Superstar top 32! I will not be posting in any of my PBP games until I get my entry for round two done. Thanks for being patient with me.

Nice!!! Congrats! That is awesome.

Guess I can say I have someone to follow now... My opinion probably won't mean much, but if you want to send me your map to review before you submit, I would be happy to look it over.

Great job!

Yeah, sure. I'm thinking once I have a good draft version I'll make a google doc of it, and share with anyone in my gaming groups who is interested in giving me a critique. I'll post in discussion once I get to that stage. Thanks for the offer :)

Congratulation, and - after reading your entry - well-deserved!

I'm going to delay the start of 4-17 then, allowing myself some time to alleviate my computer problems.

I agree, that lava lash is pretty cool. Best of luck in the next round.

If anyone does want to critique my entry before I submit it, PM me, and I'll send you a link. Pretty happy with what I've come up with.

Sorry for the delay here - I'll get something together this weekend hopefully. I will try to get an alias up so I can at least post to get the party started tonight.

On another note, I loved the map Jelani - sorry I couldn't send my review of it to you before you had to submit.

On another note, my cloak of nine lives made the top 100! Nice little consolation prize :)

No worries, man. I am pretty happy with what I ended up with, so now all I can do is take deep breaths and wait.

Just waiting for Thistle and Asuna to decide on characters.

Pretty sure the channel won't heal the false life hit points I had, so I am at 74/73... tagline updated. Nice work with the silence Oloch. Between entangled, sickened, and silenced, we should be able to slow these bums down a little bit!

I will be taking a Fall Break trip with my family to Grand Canyon and Mesa Verde.

I'll likely not be able to post from Thursday to Sunday, so feel free to bot me if I'm up!
