The S&S sheets don't have the check marks either, but the also do not have the check box, while the RotR sheets still have a – now empty – check box, which seems wrong.

Does this mean that, for example, Valeros no longer starts off with proficiency in light armor, heavy armor, and weapons, but instead he has to gain the proficiency in each throughout the course of the game?
Not. It just means a mistake was made when updating the sheets. Where there were pre-checked boxes, there should now be no boxes at all.

The image in the thumbnail is how the sheets were originally designed. They changed to the version you see in the download when Skull and Shackles and the Class Decks were released. With the character part separated from the deck list, you can mix and match characters and decks more easily. So if you want to play RotR Ezren in S&S, you take the right character and the right deck list and you are good to go.
So what you've got is what you should have.

I recently downloaded the character sheets and noticed there are discrepancies with the character sheets and what is printed on the cards. For example Harsk had higher Dexterity base on the character sheets downloaded then what is printed on the character cards. This was true for many cards. Anyone else notice?

There are multiple versions of some of the characters. Harsk, for instance, has a Rise of the Runelords version and a Ranger Class Deck version. When you added this download to your Paizo account, it actually creates 3 download in your "My Downloads" page, one for Rise of the Runelords, one for Skull and Shackles, and one for the Class Decks. Make sure you use the appropriate sheet for the character version you are playing.

Awesome I see now. Thanks for clarifying. Wasn't sure if it was balance changes or something. I figured it out now.

Not sure if this is the right place to inquire, but I played the RotR edition of the game about a year ago with a friend of mine. He had some character sheets printed out that allowed the player to mark off which adventures and scenarios had been completed.
It looks like that particular feature has been removed from the current character sheets - is there an option for that? I finally picked this up on my own and am planning to play with a group and having that bit of tracking on the character sheet seemed useful.
I could just as easily make a simple track sheet, but was just curious if there was something officially available for this.

Part of the reason that those options were removed is because you can use characters from different sets in different contexts/adventures. We would have to continue to re-create these each time individually with each released set, and it's just not a feasible practice. The way we create these sheets now makes them less dependent on the adventures themselves.

The tracking of completed adventures and scenarios is still a part of the package. They are just a part of the general Deck List files that are part of each adventure now. That way if you're playing Skull & Shackles, print out the S&S Deck List file and it will also have the appropriate scenario tracking. Same thing with Runelords.

I think you may be referring to the card list that lists the cards for the game. Theryon is talking about the Deck List for you to check off the cards in your personal deck. (Very useful for when you play with multiple groups with one set)

Now updated with the following:
- The character sheet for Skull & Shackles Merisiel has the following change to her Shadow role: "When a monster deals damage to you before (▢ or after) the encounter, reduce that damage to 0." has been changed to "When a monster deals damage to you before (▢ or after) you act, reduce that damage to 0."
- The character sheet for Wrath of the Righteous Imrijka has had her third "Constitution" checkbox removed.
- The Deck List for the Wrath of the Righteous characters is now included in the package.
EDIT:
Updated!
Doh! I've been ninja-ed! ;)

Hi Chris,
It looks like the FAQ for S&S Jirelle hasn't been applied yet. Was it missed or is it going to be upcoming? Same with this Radillo FAQ. Also this Sajan FAQ.
Also, Wu Shen's Prey Stalker role seems to have this FAQ applied, but only the checkbox add, not the one that removed the checkbox for "or close a location".
Damiel (S&S base) and Seoni (CD, Tattooed Mystic) both have powers that don't have a period at the end.
Lini (RotR Shapeshifter) has the text "and you may add Fire trait". The word "the" is missing.

Hey All,
Just purchased a copy of the Rise of the Runelords Base Set second hand and what my playing group would like to know is that with these character sheets and the alternate builds is it possible to play them with just the base set or do you need the class decks to make them work ?
Or are the alternative builds mainly just to do with what powers are on their cards?
Some of the group don't like the original characters(artwork mainly) but I don't want to go out buying class decks till I know they are going to enjoy the game.
Regards

Not sure of the specific answers to your questions, but it seems to me that the base idea behind the class decks is that each player should buy the one(s) in which he is interested, rather than the GM supplying them for everybody.
That said, I'm buying them all.

Primarily, the class decks are intended to be used in organized play, although you certainly can use them in a normal home game, but that is not what they were designed for.

How well the characters in the class decks will work with out the boons in the class decks will depend on the character chosen and on the adventure path you are playing.
Olenjack from the Rogue Class Deck, for example, has a power that works from his checks having the Poison trait. If you were playing an adventure path that didn't have a lot of cards to give his check the poison trait, his power wouldn't be very useful.
So, you'll need to compare the character you want to play with the cards in the adventure path. For me, every time we've used a class deck character in a non-organized-play adventure path, we've always just included the class deck boons too.
