Hi,
Could you please cancel my adventure path subscription? I'd like to continue with my Lost Omens and Rulebook subscriptions.
Thanks

So I'm running Age of Ashes, and my party is currently doing downtime things after finishing Book 2.
I'm wondering if I'm missing something that gives them a strong incentive to go through the second portal, using Eclipse.
It's not that they're unmotivated, character backstory's etc. give them a strong reason to want to go after the Scarlet Triad.
It's just that after Hauberk turns up and does his thing, I can see two possible scenarios:
a) They find out he's being ordered around from Kintargo. They then have motivation to get to Kintargo, but no reason to know that taking the portal will get them there.
b) They don't find out where he's getting orders from. Plot stalls until they decide to poke the second portal out of pure curiosity. At which point, what coincidence, this portal leads straight to that random guys boss!

Slightly complicating matters is that they almost died going through the first portal, so I think they might be a bit relucatant to start poking the next one without plot reasons.

I'm also already intending to have the Eye of the Wise not being in the possession of Laslunn, but to instead be in the possession of a scarlet triad agent sent to infiltrate the citadel in order to find the Jewelgate exit, to try and break up the whole beat bosss -> get key -> find out what next boss is up to pattern.

Does anyone have any suggestions/insight into how I can work the portal in more organically?
Thanks

So, from what I've heard, there are updates/errata pending that all classes (except monks) get unarmed proficiency equal to their simple weapon proficiency (class weapons for wizards).

Doesn't this then mean that the feat Iruxi Unarmed Expertise does nothing?

Also, have I missed something, or do the Iruxi attacks have no weapon group for the purposes of Iruxi Unarmed Cunning? I would assume they're in the brawling group, but I don't think that's stated anywhere.
