If no one claims the Item 1, then Reiko will take it.
Reiko will make use of the Leech (loot), replacing her Riding Horse; she will also make use of the Ring of Protection (loot - thanks, Alahazra!), replacing her Compass.
Lastly, Reiko will fill her new Item slot with a Staff of Minor Healing (pre-Core version as found as an Item 0 in Ultimate Equipment!!!). If she gets the Item 1, she'll just fill it with the Core version of the same item.
Keeping hero point.
Don't think I need any of the upgrades this time.
Don't think I used a hero point this time because I had none. :)
I would definitely be interested in the Enervation spell AND potentially The Lost as well, if no one else is really interested in that one.
7-1D: The Rotten Rodeo
Difficulty: Legendary
Scenario Reward: Loot: Enervation, The Lost.
Adventure Reward: For the rest of the Adventure Path, after you rebuild your deck, you may banish a card from it to choose a card from the vault whose level is #-2 (minimum 0). Adventure Card Guild players choose the card from their deck box instead.
Legendary Reward: You may erase 1 feat then gain 1 feat of the same type you erased.
Tier Reward: Hero Point (now 1). Increase to Tier 2.
Deck Upgrade: Prayer -> The Winged Serpent (Blessing 1)
7-1 Reward summary:
Alahazra - Blessing 1, Bank Hero Point - 2 total. Advance to tier 2.
Thargrap - no upgrades, Bank Hero Point. Advance to tier 2.
Reiko - Item 1, Card Feat: Item.
Arueshalae - Blessing 1, Bank Hero Point. Advance to tier 2.
No use of Adventure 1 or Legendary rewards, but they're both much more useful at higher tiers.
Just doubling up, but:
Hey everyone.
I'm going to be going away for the upcoming week to THE PLACE WITHOUT INTERNET. I will be out of signal from tomorrow morning (about 24hrs from the time of this post) until a time 7 days later.
In the interim, I hope you all eat all the yummies, drink all the drinkies, celebrate all the happies, but most importantly, get ready to say GOOD RIDDANCE to this wet fart of a year.
Many cheers.
-Paul (Dink)
I made it back early! I hope everyone is enjoying their end of the year.
I've gone ahead and posted.
Scenario 7-2A wrap-up:
Upgrade pool:
Weapon - 0
Spell - 11
Armor - 0
Ally - 0
Blessing - 111
1.) This will be Reiko’s 3rd XP at Tier 2. She will spend her Hero Point on a Skill Feat (DEX), leaving her with 0 hero points in the tank.
2.) She’s going to pass on the aneaemic upgrades on offer.
3.) She’d be interested in either of the two loot blessings - probably the Gorum one over the Asmodeus one, but either one.
4.) I'd like to continue using the Ring of Protection and the Leech as loot.
1st XP at tier 2. Taking power feat Light Armor Proficiency AKA +1 to hand size.
I think someone should take the Our Lord In Iron loot but will only take it if no one else does.
Power feat: On your ([ ] or a local) check against a monster, you may bury a card from your discards or banish a buried card to add 1d6 ([X] 1d8).
I have 1 hero point left after this power feat.
Upgrade:
Thargrap is also interesting in either of the two loot blessings.
I'll roll off with you, Thargrap.
Tier 2, 1 XP.
Use Hero Point on Power Feat When the cohort Arueshalae's Gift is displayed next to a character's deck, add 1d4 (☑+1) to his checks that use a marked skill.
Spent 1 Hero Point during scenario, 0 Hero Points remaining.
No interest in upgrades or new loot. I continue to be interested in Deathbane Light Crossbow.
Looks like I get the Prince of Pain. I’ll swap The Locksmith for that.
7-2A Reward summary:
Arueshalae - No upgrades, Power Feat.
Reiko - No upgrades, Skill Feat: Dex. Prince of Pain Loot
Thargrap - Blessing 1, Power Feat: Add d8 to local check vs monster. Lord in Iron Loot.

No usage of Adv 1 reward.
Scenario 7-2B wrap-up:
Upgrade pool:
Weapon - 2
Item - 210
Ally - 0
Blessing - 2111
Reiko will save her Hero Point. This brings her total to 1 Hero Point.
This is the 4th XP that Reiko has at Tier 2. She'll remain there.
She's mildly interested in both of the blessing boons, but only if there's no one else taking them will she step up.
Upgrades:
2nd xp at tier 2. Using the hero point for card feat spell. 1hp remaining.
No upgrades.
Hero point will be used for Skill feat: Strength +2.
No other upgrades interest me at the moment.
Tier 2, 2 XP
No interest in loot blessings.
Hero Point: Spend on Skill feat: Dexterity +2. 0 HP spent during scenario, 0 HP remaining.
Deck Upgrade: Swap Blessing of the Archdevils with Blessing of Urgathoa (Blessing 2)
Sorry y'all. I'm going to be a stickler. I didn't take any upgrade last session, and the Weapon 2 is a high-priority upgrade for Reiko. The Item 2 is a distant second-place.
Reiko will swap Scorpion Whip for Stormrune Knife.
All that being said, I'm going to tick a box on my Treasure Hunter boon and take the Item 2 as well, if no one is going to claim it. I will swap out Compass (currently temp-replaced by the loot card Ring of Protection) for Cloak of Daggers.
7-2B Reward summary:
Arueshalae - Blessing 2, Skill Feat: Dex +2. 0 HP left.
Reiko - Weapon 2, Skill Feat: Dex. Maybe Loot. 1 HP left.
Thargrap - TBD, Skill Feat: Str +2. ?HP left.
Alahazra - No upgrades. Card Feat: Spell. 1 HP left.
No usage of Adv 1 reward.
If Thargrap wants the Item 2, I'll let him have it, otherwise Reiko can use their Treasure Hunter.
Thragrap will take the Item 2 to get a Staff of Minor Healing. It looks like I have 0 hero points left at the moment.
Based on the Discord discussion, it looks like I was able to take the Item 2 in addition to the Weapon 2. Is that correct?
7-2B Reward summary final:
Arueshalae - Blessing 2, Skill Feat: Dex +2. 0 HP left.
Reiko - Weapon 2, Item 2 (Check box on Treasure Hunter boon), Skill Feat: Dex. Maybe Loot. 1 HP left.

I may end up using Treasure Hunter, depends on what's left on the table.

This is her 5th XP at Tier 2. She will Tier up to Tier 3.
Upgrade preferences:
Ditto on using Treasure Hunter if there's stuff left over that I'm interested in.
Ally 3
Traits: Loot Human Ranger
To Acquire: Charisma Diplomacy 10 None Perception Ranged 8
Reload to examine the top card of your location, then you may shuffle your location deck. Discard to explore. This exploration, reduce all damage you suffer by 1d4, and you may evade banes.
7-2C Upgrade breakdown:
3 want an ally 2, with the highest 2 rolls being Arueshalae and Thargrap, however that leaves Alahazra with no listed second choice.
Arueshalae - Armor 2, Ally 2 (checking off Treasure Hunter boon), Card Feat: Ally. 0 HP left.
Reiko - Blessing 1, Bank HP. Maybe Loot. 1 HP left.
Thargrap - Ally 2, Card Feat: Spell. ?HP left.
Alahazra - ???. Skill Feat: Cha. 1 HP left.

Blessing - 11
No interest in going Treasure Hunting for the Item 2. I'll replace my Blessing of Kofusachi with Blessing of Horus.
Reiko will continue to use the Leech, The Prince of Pain, and the Ring of Protection.
I'll take the item 2 then.
Scenario 7-2D wrap-up:
Upgrade pool:
Weapon - 2200
Armor - 211
Item - 10
Ally - 2100
Blessing - 110
7-2D: Increase to Tier 3 (so Tier 3, 0 XP). Bank HP, so now have 1 HP. When I increase to Tier 3, add the loot cards Starbow, Spherewalker Staff, and Swallowtail Bracers to my CD box.
Legendary reward: Erase power feat Hand Size 6, gain power feat "Electricity, Fire, and Poison damage dealt to you is reduced by 3 (☑ 5)" -- I felt that the party as a whole was consistently getting very low on cards this past adventure due to wildcards and story banes taxing healing resources, and since Alahazra can't be everywhere at once it seems worthwhile to bring my hand size down temporarily to help ease that a bit. I've also been making surprisingly good use of my demon energy resistance power and the new feat will help soak cases where I suffer 1d4 or 1d4+1 damage as well without needing to worry about it.
AD1 reward: Banish Longbow and replace with Starbow (level 3 weapon, but is Owner: Arueshalae so I can treat it as level 0).
Will post AD2 reward and deck upgrades a bit later, ran out of time.
Up to Tier 3. Bank the hero point, so I now have 2.
AD2 reward: will take an additional Ally to keep in my deck.
Save my HP. 2 HP remain. Tiering up.
Pick Spell for my extra card type. Add in Pyrotechnic Blast.
AD2 reward: Choose Item for my extra card type, add in Swallowtail Bracers.
Starknife -> Keen Starknife (aside: it saddens me that Starknives don't have the Desna trait despite being Desna's favored weapon)
Scenario 7-2D:
1.) That's my 2nd XP at Tier 3.
2.) I'll use my Hero Point to gain a Card Feat (Item).
3.) I'll choose Spell as my chosen boon for the AD2 reward. It'll guarantee that I'll have Materialize available.
4.) Upgrades: I'll make it easy and take the Item 1 upgrade. With it, I will grab the Smoke Bomb.
I'm not retraining and feats at present.
Sorry for the delay.
7-2D Upgrade breakdown:
Arueshalae - Weapon 2. Save HP. Tier up to 3. Keep an extra Item.
Reiko - Item 1, Card Feat: Item. Keep an extra Spell.
Thargrap - Weapon 2, Save HP. Tier up to 3. 2 HP Left. Keep an extra Ally.
Alahazra - Ally 2. Save HP. Tier up to 3. 2 HP Left. Keep an extra Spell.

1.) Use Hero Point to grab Power feat and Role card (Ninjitsu Master). Take the following feat: [X] You may treat your powers and favored card type as if the word "Poison" were "Arcane". (☐ You gain the skill Arcane: Charisma +2.) No Hero Points remaining.

...the power [X] On another local character's check, you may discard a card from your hand or the top of card of your deck (☐ or reload or recharge a card); if you do, the character gains your skills until the end of the check.
Thargrap is so much fun.
We are all a little bit Thargrap.
7-3A:
Spend Hero Point on Power feat, gaining my role card first: Redeemed. Power feat: "At the start of your (☑ or any) turn, you may add Arueshalae's Gift to your hand."
Scenario reward: Weapon 3
Heavy Crossbow -> Seeking Longbow
Spyglass -> Bloodroot Poison (pre-Core)
Oh yeah, I've redrawn Corrosion as I had to banish it during the last scenario. It is level 1, so it's fine (#-2) to add to my deck (and then set aside).
Replace Smoke Bomb with Ring of Maniacal Devices.
Reiko is going to take an extra Armor 3 upgrade, as they all appear unused. She will replace her Shinobi Shozoku with Sable Company Leathers.
