So a campaign I'm running is possibly wrapping up soon due to lack of time/energy for the homebrewing and will be looking to start an AP to ease my stress. However nobody, myself included, really wants to start over at first level. And so I'm trying to think what AP can do well if you skip the first book. Something that I don't have to dictate too much through exposition to get it going, just a quick "you guys did this now go". I do have some experience with running/playing APs so I have my own ideas but was interested in what other GMs/players thought?

How do you determine the DC to cast defensively for spell-likes that don't replicate actual spells? Do you just assume it's 0 and thus a DC 15? If it matters the specific ones that came up in game are the paladin's divine bond and the travel domain's dimensional hop, though I'm sure there are others.
