The problem is players being above the WBL. So how did we get there.
1. Players playing out of their tier on a regular basis.
Why did this happen.
A. The first four seasons were designed for a table of 4. So tables of five and six played up for any challenge.
B. Greed.
2. The free consumables in the adventures.
3. PP/Fame is able to be used as gold.
4. Gold on chronicles out paces the WBL chart. ( at least at the low lvls I did not crunch the numbers at high tier)
5. Pregens.

What can we do to fix or have done to fix these.
1.
A.
1. The adventures are now wrote with a six player mind set.
2. The modules were sanctioned for PFS.
3. The APs are being sanctioned for PFS.
4. Thornkeep.
B. ???
2. Eliminate this rule maybe.
3. ???
4. Reduce the gold on new chronicles across the broad to bring it back to the WBL chart
5. ???
We know that the playing out of tier is the biggest problem. I do see this less and less now due to season 4. So have MJM fixed some of the problem already with 1-A. With us just not seeing the results yet. It may be that we are just seeing all of the rich characters from the early seasons right now. I would like to see 2 and 4 put into place for season 5 and see if that helps.

I like the double XP for playing up. Instead of doubling the PP/Fame why not give 3 PP/Fame for playing up. It is assumed that we don't get 100% of PP/Fame.

I would like to thank Bob, the GMs, and all the other event staff for all their hard work. Winter War was a blast again this year. A special thanks goes out to Chris for running Thornkeep for us.

I plan on taking the luck variant channeling with my new PFS cleric. Do I have to have Desna as my deity or can I chose any deity that has luck as a domain.

Thanks in advance

It was a blast again this year. I also want to give a big thanks to Kyle. I had a great time at all of the tables he ran for us this weekend.

Per the guide to org play p. 34-35 Characters who commit potentially evil acts (casting spells with the Evil descriptor, killing or maiming someone, etc.) while following specific orders from their faction or the Pathfinder Society, do not suffer alignment infractions. These are cases where karma applies to those making the orders, not their tools. 
So can someone cast animate dead or shadow projection with out fear of an alignment change.

Thanks in advance.

So a Cav. gives the party Outflank for an encounter. I am the only one in the party with Gang up as a feat. So I don't stand in the normal flanking position but still gain the flanking bonus because a pair of allies are flanking the bad guy. Who gets AoO on who's crits?

Thanks in advance.

If I have the gold and PP can I buy a scroll of Limit Wish.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys.

I have a PFS game tonight and wanted to make sure I did this right.
1 How many tricks can I teach him in one mod.
2 With a 3 INT is 6 the max on tricks not counting bonus tricks for lvl.
3 Can I take 10 on the skill check.

Thanks for the help.

The magic domain will give you the hand of the acolyte. Skill focus in any knowledge skill then take the arcane bloodline with the eldrich heritage feat. Sounds like an Inquisitor of Nethys to me. You will still have to have a 13 cha to make it work but you can have everything by third lvl.

You are looking for Nok'To'Kah I think he was a human but not for sure on that one. His buddy was also playing a LM but I can't remember his name. Ricky Bobby is just an archer that likes to shoot fast.

I am playing a melee guy like what you are desribing in a home game. The build is pretty simple 1 wizard with the foresight school with the rest being a Brevoy Aldori Swordlord fighter out of the inner sea primer. The wizard gives me shield, true strike, and enlarge person most of which I have on wands to get around the spell failure chance. I picked up a grapplers mask for 5k to be able to grapple and bull rush. A dusty rose prism slotted in to a way finder will increase your cmb /cmd . Combat reflexs is also a good feat to have.

Can a Barbarian use spring attack while raging. I ask this because in the core rulebook on p 32 under the rage section it states that "while in rage, a barbarian cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills(except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration.
