Tier 3.3/2 Die Bumps

I currently have a Researcher, so I'm likely to make it with Feiya's help. But on the other hand, I don't need to be at Feiya's location.

Explore the Brig. Encounter a Ghost.

Sajan continues exploring the Brig. A ghost, perhaps from one of those weird armors they saw at the entrance, begins wailing.

Use Venomous Fighting Fan +1.

Combat DC 12: 1d10 + 1d4 + 9 ⇒ (4) + (2) + 9 = 15

The fan seems to be effective, silencing the Ghost and sending it to the afterlife.

Discard Teamster to explore. It's a Toad.

Wisdom DC 8: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Sajan tried to guess where the Toad would jump, but guessed wrong and the Toad scampers off.

Discard Researcher to explore. Large Chest.

Dexterity DC 11: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Sajan tries to fiddle with a Large Chest that just appeared, but accidentally breaks the lock.

Banish the barrier. End turn.

I'm at the point where healing is useful, so I'm likely to exit the brig (if possible)
and head to Kyra's location.

Tier 3.3 // 2 die bumps

There aren't many locations Kyra can close, so she's going to head for the Cargo Hold for the moment

Explore: Kyra spots a Spyglass on a shelf near the door. As she takes a close look she is briefly distracted by an Amulet of Fortitude sitting nearby, but decides the Spyglass is more interesting.

If we're just putting an acquisition on the loot pile the Spyglass is the obvious choice - the Check to Acquire is Wisdom 4, which Kyra can't fail. But I'm also tempted to keep the Spyglass, and immediately use it to take a look at the next two cards in the location deck.

Any comments/advice?

GM: We could also need a couple more items for the "banish 1, encounter 1" mechanics of the Cargo hold

I'll pause for a while to give the other players a chance to comment.

Tier 3.3/2 Die Bumps

Not likely a villain scenario, so scouting is less crucial unless you don't think you can fight/get rid of barriers at the location. Since you are at the Cargo Hold with only 1 monster and 1 barrier, that's much less of a concern. I also have an Abadar if you need it to defeat the henchman.

skizzerz - CD Feiya

Deck Handler // Tier 6.12 // 11 hero points

Scouting is great, but so is more cards in the boon pile. We have 4 right now vs 35 cards in location decks. We have 23 turns left, so if we explore on average 1.5 times a turn from here on out, we'd win even if we don't put anything else in the boon pile and all the henchmen are at the bottom of their location decks (so no early closes). This seems unlikely, so even with just the free explore per turn I think we're fine at only 4 cards in the boon pile. As such, if you want to pick up the spyglass for yourself, go for it. Ideally we'd have around 8 cards in the pile though.

Tier 3.3 // 2 die bumps

Something came up, so I'm a bit later getting back to this

Kyra picks up the spyglass (she can't fail a Wisdom 4 check), but get's hit with an unexpected jolt of electricity (discards her Holy Light spell). Using the spyglass to peer around the Cargo Hold she spies
some cryptic runes in one corner of the hold, and a battered chest sitting on a shelf.

The only way for Kyra to explore is to use her Blessing of Pharasma, and that wouldn't leave her enough to defeat the Henchman and be able to close the location. While it would be tempting to try and deal with the Battered Chest that's only a 50% chance, with a payoff of 1d4 items, at the cost of shuffling the location deck if she fails.

Kyra will take the safe course of leaving the Cryptic Runes on top of the deck, then reset her hand (drawing another Blessing of Pharasma) and end her turn.

Agna starts by taking a peek from the observation deck.

perception DC 7: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

But can't make anything out.

Agna shouts "I'm going in!" and then heads to sick bay.

Finding the known Elven Breastplate...

fort DC 7: 1d8 ⇒ 8

And adding it to the Scenario pile.

Before possibly getting into trouble Agna will then use her staff of minor healing to randomly recharge... Arcane Armor... :(

Pushing forward with the Snow-Leopard...

Finds Cryptic Runes

Ugh, I should have explored with the blessing instead of the animal, didn't expect to find the henchman this turn

I might as well use my blessing of Abadar.

Even though I can't close these barriers are annoying enough that I think it's worth dealing with. I'll also use Sajan's Abadar blessing.

int 10: 5d4 ⇒ (1, 1, 3, 1, 4) = 10

Success!

Well... with that out of the way, and wanting to not spend a lot of time here, I'll now discard the blessing of Milani to explore again.

It's a goblin dog. With my normal desire to cycle cards I'll break the bastard sword over its head.

combat DC 9: 1d10 + 4 + 1d10 + 1d10 ⇒ (1) + 4 + (8) + (3) = 16

With only a Cure and Repelling Pike left in my hand I'm ready to be done.

Kyra won't be heading to the Sick Bay anytime soon - she can't make the fortitude check without using resources, so she'd be burying a card every turn.
Edit: although with an Augury there she might be prepared to make a quick visit ...

Since skizzerz will most likely not close the Cargo Hold, I will go to the Cargo Hold on my turn and heal (if you may, Kyra). Unless there are objections I'll attempt to close (~~1d6 Intelligence~~ though - I have an Emerald of Dexterity with an Abadar).
Are you interested in the things in the Cargo Hold? I can't use Armors and I have the Items I need, and 1 weapon isn't enough for me to burn through the rest of the deck.

Also, the summon and acquires for the Cargo Hold are encounters too, so we summon 2 things of each type (Armor and Item). If I close, I'll use the ones provided above, but in something wrong happens we'll need more to replenish.

I have a thing in an hour and will be back in about 3 hours.

Pirate Pregen

Jun 14, 2017, 05:59 pm

I used your Abadar Sajan. You didn't mention on this most recent post it being usable, but you mentioned it before. I used it to beat my cryptic runes.

skizzerz - CD Feiya

Jun 14, 2017, 06:19 pm

Deck Handler // Tier 6.12 // 11 hero points

While I could close the Cargo Hold, the iffy thing is that I then need to acquire both an armor and an item. I can do one of the two easily enough with Good Omen (probably the armor), but the item would be iffy as I only have one blessing. As such, I'm going to stay in the Engine Room.

Feiya continues to explore the Engine Room, finding a Scout.

BYA Ranged Combat damage: 1d4 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0 I keep rolling 1's... at least this time it was a good 1, but I hope my Combat check isn't all 1's

Feiya avoids the swing the Scout surprised her with, and readies her staff in retaliation. Playing Staff of Crackling Wrath, displaying Black Spot, healing Blessing of the Elements, then discarding Black Spot.

Combat DC 10 (8+2): 1d12 + 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (8) + (4, 4) + 4 = 20 The Scout is handily dispatched.

Feiya continues to explore the Engine Room, finding a Crown of Charisma. Blessing of Pharasma to go again.

Diplomacy DC 5: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Crown of Charisma goes into the scenario pile. I then reset my hand and end my turn, as I'm out of means to explore again.

Tier 3.3/2 Die Bumps

on the phone, fluff minimal. Saw Pirate Agna's post about Abadar. Will substitute with a BotG from my hand and BoPharasma from Kyra's then

Attempt to move to Cargo Hold

DC 7 Acrobatics: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

accept the Cure from Kyra with thanks

Cure: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

encounter Cryptic Runes, recharging Emerald of Dexterity and discarding BotG, and taking Kyra's Blessing of Pharasma.

DC 10 Intelligence check with Dexterity die: 3d10 ⇒ (3, 4, 9) = 16

yay, no whammy

Attempt to close, random armor then item. Taking summons from cartmanbeck's post, from top down, it's a Wooden Shield and Elven Chain Shirt. Elven Chain Shirt is Armor 1, but Agna already picked up a Armor 1 and 2 party members don't know what armor is, so I'm picking Wooden Shield and raw rolling (1/6 chance to fail)

DC 4 Fortitude: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Send it to the pile, then the Item. Kyra picked up the summoned Spyglass already, so we have a Wand of Shield and a Caltrops. Nobody seemed interested in even Item 2s so I'm picking the one I can actually go for, [s]and borrowing skizzerz' Good Omen to close the location guaranteed (+3, +1 from Dexterity).

Tier 3.3 // 2 die bumps

First things first:

Divine 8: 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 fails to recharge her cure, and she also has a blessing to discard.
That's another 1 on a d10 - I want to inspect those dice!

OK - time for a (very) quick visit to the Sick Bay.

Explore: Kyra finds an Augury (somehow I was expecting that ...), and can't fail a Divine 6 check to acquire it (although she has to discard her Blessing of Pharasma to hold on to it). She immediately uses it to see if there are any barriers in the top three cards of the location deck. She finds two (a Zombie Horde and a Skinsaw Ritual - both fairly unpleasant Barrier 2s) and relegates them to the bottom of the location deck.

Divine 8: 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10 does at least recharge the Augury, though.

With that she resets her hand (Chain Mail, Blessing of Cayden Cailean, Greatclub +1) and ends her turn.

Tier 3.3 // 2 die bumps

Why has the top of the Scenario Deck somehow morphed from an Elven Breastplate to a Ring of Protection?

(And, for that matter, why are the cards suddenly numbered 4 to 7, when before they were numbered 1 to 4?)

Pirate Pregen

"Thanks Kyra!"

Fort DC 7: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Unsurprisingly Agna loses the tiger from the top of her deck.

Agna then hands her cure to Kyra.

With 2 of the 3 barriers on the bottom, this becomse a much more pleasant location to explore. I'll stay here and work on it, since I don't really mind getting a couple cards burried if need be.

With the horde and ritual on the bottom, Agna explores and finds.

available cards, top down: 1d4 ⇒ 4
That'll be the previously bottom card (7).

Collapsed Ceiling, great the remaining barrier.

Dexterity/Acrobatics/Constitution/Fortitude 10

Unfortunately my cards are once again not very helpful.
I'm a d8 at dex but can get 2 dice from Kyra's Cailean blessing using Con, assuming she's interesting in sharing so that we don't get burried.

blessed Con check: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 6) = 13

"Thank's Kyra!"

Alright, with the henchman gone, the other 2 barriers on the bottom, it's 2 allies and a spell left.

Recharging Fox to explore.

from the top: 1d3 ⇒ 1

A sage! much better.
wisdom DC 7: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Adding Sage to the scenario pile.

It's tempting to use the Giant Badger to run off, but I think I'll use it to explore again instead.

from the top: 1d2 ⇒ 2

Levitate, Spell B, can't acquire.
int DC 6: 1d4 ⇒ 4

With Arcane Armor in my top 3 I'd prefer the cure before I draw, assuming you're going to cure me. Also apologies for stealing your Cailean blessing, presume you'd rather not be buried though.

Peeking at the last unknown card here reveals it to be a dog.

Also, there should be 2 additional cards in the scenario deck (the Wooden Shield and the Caltrops from Sajan's close attempt). Also, the Cargo Bay is now closed, so it should have 1d6 random Items in it now (I'll let Sajan roll that).

Recharge Good Omen vs Arcane DC 8: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 Good Omen is recharged.

(Waiting on Agna and Kyra to figure out the Cure situation and the hand reset before I begin my turn.)

Tier 3.3 // 2 die bumps

The Cure and Blessings are there to be used - I can always heal myself if necessary if I've got a Divine card at the start of my turn.

GM: Could we have a status update, please?
By my reckoning:
We've now got seven boons in the scenario deck.
The Bridge is closed.
The Cargo Hold is closed (though with 1d6 random items in it).
The Engine Room shows seven cards, but the numbers add up to eight.
The Sick Bay has three cards (two banes, one boon), all known (no henchman)
The Brig has five cards (two banes, three boons)
The Observation Deck has one card (Cryptic Runes).

That's a total of 16 (or 17) cards in open locations, with 17? cards in the Blessings Deck. I think we're in pretty good shape!

I'm deleting the Ring of Protection from the scenario deck, since that seems like it was just a glitch.

I think I also shouldn't add the Wooden Shield and Caltrops. The scenario says when you acquire a card from a location deck, and those were summoned. So, they'd still be in Sajan's possession. CMB can overrule me if I'm wrong about that.

Hawk is correct, those two cards don't get added to the deck, unfortunately. However, if someone wanted to farm the now-closed cargo hold, those could definitely be added to the scenario deck.

Deck Handler // Tier 6.12 // 11 hero points

Ah, it does say "from a location deck" -- missed that earlier. Then yes, the Wooden Shield and Caltrops would not be part of the pile. Looks like Agna is done so I'll proceed with my turn. Grabbing all the items in the closed cargo hold seems like a good idea for helping win easier, as we know there aren't any banes in that deck anymore. We have 18 cards in open location decks vs 6 cards in scenario pile and 17 blessings remaining, so we should be able to win this pretty easily. IMO just abandon the Sick Bay, picking up the dog seems less than worthwhile given the start of turn effect.

Feiya continues her romp around the Engine Room, finding some Explosive Runes. Note: the post has Explosive Runes having the "Trip" trait rather than "Trap"

Recharging Sapphire of Intelligence per character power to reduce difficulty by 3. Arcane DC 7 (8+2-3): 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 Feiya manages to dispel the runes.

Feiya's frog hops on her shoulder, giving her comfort in continuing to examine the location. Discarding Frog to explore again.

Feiya finds a Skeleton Horde. Feiya, Agna, and Kyra each summon and encounter an Ancient Skeleton henchman. Looking up the card online, looks to be a Combat 8, with +3 difficulty if the check to defeat has Slashing or Piercing. It is immune to Mental and Poison.

Feiya levels her staff at the Ancient Skeleton. Revealing Staff of Ancient Wrath, displaying Cure, healing Frog, then discarding Cure.

Combat DC 8: 1d12 + 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + (2, 2) + 4 = 12

The skeleton in front of Feiya is destroyed. Feiya then proceeds to rest with Daji a bit. Recharging Amulet of Life per Daji (Cohort)'s power to shuffle 1d4 ⇒ 2 random spells from my discard into my deck. As the only 2 spells in my discard are Black Spot and Cure, both are shuffled in. Then, Daji (Cohort) is placed on top of my deck.

Agna and Kyra still need to make their checks against Ancient Skeleton. I have nothing to assist them with, so I'm just resetting my hand now.

"Where did this Skeleton come from?", wonders Kyra. This looks like an opponent best dealt with using a blunt weapon, so she uses her Greatclub.
discarding it for an extra d10; she was going to discard it next turn in any case

Combat 8: 3d10 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6, 10, 9) + 2 + 1 = 28 sends bone fragments flying everywhere!

Tier 3.3/2 Die Bumps

I need to adjust my hand then. I'll just pretend I discarded them on reset because it's the most convenient. Also the Emerald of Dexterity was recharged after Cure and it didn't reflect in my hand update (since I forgot). I drew a Riftwarden instead.

There are some dependencies on Kyra and Agna's fight on the rest of the turn so I am spoilering (in case their actions invalidate my fight - if this is the case, then you'll need to reset that location specifically):

after Ancient Skeleton fights:

Gonna go back to the Brig and fight some Criminals I guess. Blessing of Desna (hawkmoon's Blessing 1) is on top. Move to Brig and explore. It's a locked Stone Door. I would like to use Agna's Blessing of Milani, but if Agna uses it my turn will be invalidated. We'll deal with that as it comes though. Using Blessing of Milani

Locked Stone Door Dexterity DC 13: 3d10 + 1 ⇒ (4, 6, 7) + 1 = 18

Sajan manages to pick the lock properly this time, and it opens without a fuss. It reveals an Archer, someone kidnapped from Golarion it looks like. Rescuing her doesn't like a bad thing to do.

Leave Archer on top. Discard Teamster to explore.

Archer Dexterity DC 7: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Sajan beckons for her to join the party, but the automated systems didn't like that, and decide to shoot him with a beam that burns like a fiery ray. Continuing on, it looks like a Merchant was also kidnapped.

Discard Kama and take Archer into hand (to explore again). Discard Archer to explore again. It's a Merchant.

Normally I wouldn't give pause to throwing this away, but it's an Ally 2 and I'd add it to the pile. I don't think I'd use the Sivanah (too useful for the Cryptic Runes) but I would use a single die blessing to try and get it. How badly do you guys need an Ally 2? I'll probably go for it because moving on. Taking Feiya's Blessing of the Elements for the check.

DC 7 Charisma for Merchant: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 4) = 8

The Merchant was happy to be rescued but she was horrified about the beam, so she didn't join the party.

Send her to the pile. Only 1 single monster left in all locations, so leaving only 1 weapon in hand to draw more blessings.

End turn. Reset hand, discarding Kusarigama to attempt to draw blessings.

Tier 3.3 // 2 die bumps

I don't think Kyra's actions depend on anyone else, so I'll go ahead and post.

Kyra can't make a CON/Fort 7, so she buries the top card of her deck - a Warhammer

She could move away to the cargo hold, but picking up an item there only reduces our deficit by one. She can do at least that well by staying here (although she'll have to bury another card next turn). If she does manage to acquire the card (which she should manage 90% of the time) that will reduce the deficit by two. Mind you, that depends on her not rolling a 1 on a d10, and the way the dice have been acting lately that might not be such a good bet ...

Kyra hears barking, and finds a dog hiding behind an overturned crate. She tries to befriend it

Wisdom 5: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

The dog follows her for a while, but then runs off to join the Scenario pile

Kyra discards her Chain Mail and draws Magic Half-Plate, Find Traps and a Cure.

Over to you, Agna!

Hey, can you post Kyra's updated hand? Would be useful to see what blessings and other spells are available for others to use -- I'm eyeing that Find Traps in case I run into Cryptic Runes at the Engine Room.

Tier 3.3/2 Die Bumps

Note that I obtained the Merchant and sent her to the scenario pile, in case the fluff was confusing about it.

Also I have a Milani.

Also also, radiation leaks in the sick bay suck. And I still haven't gotten my Ring of Wave Walking.

I could bury my badger to move before my turn, to save myself burying my top card, but I'd rather bury the top card than my badger...

Con 7: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Agna buries her longsword off the top and heads to the Cargo Hold to start gathering loot.

First off there's a crowbar.
strength DC 3: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

We'll add that to the scenario pile.

The badger will find me a potion.

Int DC 4: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Success!

We'll also send that to the scenario pile.

Agna will discard the wooden shield and the arcane armor and be done.

Hand: Staff of Minor Healing, Belt of Giant Strength, Fox, Repelling Pike +1, Blessing of Milani, Blessing of Erastil (2), Blessing of Erastil (1)

After the next turn starts Agna will heal herself with the staff.

Getting back... Arcane Armor :/

I've got 2 Erastil Blessings and a Milani that are up for grabs. I've also got a fox that can recharge for a d4 on any int/wisdom check if needed (although am less excited about using that since it's a recharge explore for me etc)

Deck Handler // Tier 6.12 // 11 hero points

Feiya decides to peer at what barriers may still be awaiting her in the Engine Room, in hopes of finding those Cryptic Runes again. Augury for Barriers, finding Aid, Monster in the Closet, and Cryptic Runes. Putting the runes on top, followed by MitC. The rest of the deck is shuffled. Note that card 1 in the spoiler was still Skeleton Horde however that was banished and should not have been there (I know there are not 2 copies of it, as there are 3 barriers total and I've already found Explosive Runes and Monster in the Closet previously).

Recharge Augury vs Arcane DC 8: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6. Augury is discarded.

Feiya locates the Cryptic Runes and tries to take them out. Recharging Sapphire of Intelligence per character power to reduce difficulty by 3. I am using Kyra's Find Traps for 2 additional dice.

Craft DC 7 (10-3): 3d12 + 4 ⇒ (3, 10, 6) + 4 = 23

Top card is Monster in the Closet, the next card is... (1=card 2, 2=card 5, 3=card 6) 1d3 ⇒ 2 a Bunyip. I'll leave them in that order.

We win after this encounter anyway (10 cards in scenario pile, 9 remaining in decks after Cryptic Runes is defeated), so I'm going to attempt to close just for the heck of it.

Using Blessing of Sivanah for 2 extra dice. Craft DC 9: 3d12 + 4 ⇒ (5, 11, 9) + 4 = 29

Engine Room is closed, leaving 10 cards in the scenario pile and 5 cards in open location decks. We win. (I was contemplating leaving the Runes on top and then moving over to assist with the Cargo Hold, but we had two Item 2's for grabs in the first scenario and only one of them was used, so most of us don't seem to be all that thrilled with item upgrades).

Well done, Pathfinders! I'll be updating with lot and stuff very soon. I have a feeling we are going to have some downtime between parts! Lol

Good job! Boon list from scenario (most likely they're our deck upgrades):

Chain Mail (Armor B)
Potion of Healing, Crown of Charisma, Crowbar, Potion of Ghostly Form (Item B)
Crow, Sage, Dog (Ally B)
Elven Breastplate (Armor 1)
Merchant (Ally 2)

I found a Wooden Shield and Caltrops. Did you get anything?

Report one Fire success to the Overseer GM.
Each character chooses a card from the box that has an adventure deck number less than or equal to
the scenario’s adventure deck number and notes it on her Chronicle sheet.
When she earns her next scenario reward, she may use the chosen card as a bonus deck upgrade.

So... it doesn't ACTUALLY say that you get the cards from the pile next to the scenario. Which is strange. I'm gonna check with Keith on that one.

For now, choose what kind of upgrade you think you'll like at the end of the NEXT scenario.

As far as things that were ACTUALLY acquired:
Arcane Armor (Spell B)
Archer (Ally B)
Augury (Spell B)
Spyglass (Item B)
Warhammer (Weapon B)

So hold off for a few hours on choosing the upgrade for this scenario until I get clarification from Keith.

I acquired the Wooden Shield and Caltrops from the close and they went to me, not the scenario pile. (The spoiled stuff actually went through as the blessings I used were not invalidated)

I didn't pick up and keep anything, and all the spells I found were B... (sigh)

I will Choose Blessing of Gorum (1).

Which I'll get as a bonus upgrade after the next scenario.

151 to 200 of 707
