I actually quite like the idea of perhaps giving them a 2nd standard action (though I'd likely disallow any usage of that 2nd standard action for an actual movement), as that would allow them to attack twice per round, but how might I reconcile that with the Monks' Flurry of Blows ability?

We went with the 18/16/14/12/10/8 array.

Oh! I also wanted to mention that I understand the principles of their action economy, etc, but as they are only level 1, we've not yet had a taste of how much stronger the gestalt approach alone will make them in comparison to standard classes. I suppose my primary concern is the distribution of damage -- as there are only two of them, it seems natural that they will both be absorbing more damage than a typical 4-player party.

Hi all. I am running with a party of two gestalt PCs(a Samurai/Fighter and a Monk/Ninja). I'm curious as to whether anyone might have any insights as to how I can best scale their encounters and so forth. The core rulebook suggests that they should face encounters of their APL -1, but I've seen it suggested that gestalt characters face CLs 1 or 2 levels higher than their APL. What would be a solid guideline for a decent challenge for these two?

I imagine they will be carrying a lot of potions as they don't have any healing abilities, and I've wondered if giving them a +50% or even +100% bonus to their HD rolls at each level wouldn't be reasonable--but I worry that it may disrupt the balance at later levels. What do you guys think? I kind of like the appeal of them having an extended longevity between encounters, but I still want them to feel the necessity to rest and whatnot.

Thanks for any help.

On page 21 of Stolen Lands, the description of the gold mine indicates that the process for setting up a mine is detailed in volume #32 (Rivers Run Red), but I have been unable to locate that information in the Rivers Run Red book. Could someone kindly advise? Many thanks.

I've noticed occasional references to specific Professions (such as sailor and siege engineer) in the prerequisite lists of some Feats. For some reason, the only information I've been able to find about Professions so far is the little bit of information provided under the entry in the skills section of the Core Rulebook.

Could someone advise as to where I can find information about specific Professions and their ranks?
