Could we get a map list?

This scenario does not use any currently available flip-mats. It uses the layout from Flip-Mat: Monastery

** spoiler omitted **Are there any changes to that map? Thereby making it a custom map, or is the map used the same as the currently out of print flip map?
Because I have that particular flip mat, so either, I'm already set for maps, or I have a map I have to print when I get the quest.
It's used as-is.
** spoiler omitted **What's the point of designing adventures around maps that you can't get hold of?
The same as any adventure that uses a custom map. In this particular instance there was a bit of a miscommunication several months back regarding which maps were going to be getting the Classics treatment, but the PDF is still available for GMs to reference and draw out on a plain battle-mat or print out as they'd like, which is more than we'd typically have for a custom map.
when may i ask will this quest be available for purchase?

Can you confirm that this module is not part of the subscription? It wasn't included in my auth e-mail.
One bit of evidence -- Pathfinder Society Quest #1 appears not to have been part of the subscription either. My order history shows that I bought it and never got a refund as I did for 1-00.

Was it ever confirmed that Quests are not part of the Subscriptions?
Apologies for the delayed answer, there was a lot of traveling and illness going around the last two weeks that was making it hard to track down someone who could confirm the answer and that it was working as intended:
Per Tonya, the quests are not currently part of the subscription package, as the subscription pricing is based on two Pathfinder scenarios a month.

Couple of [potential] editing errors...
On page 14, Meleeka has +1 striking handwraps of mighty blows, but her damage is only listed as 1d6+2. Shouldn't it be 2d6+2?
Also, can you confirm that the shuriken on page 14 are supposed to be 1d4+8 damage? The +8 seems high and I cannot mathhammer how it got that high.

This is less an editing error and more a "we didn't sudoku things well enough" kinda thing. NPCs and monsters aren't built with the same rules as PCs, and they have numeric metrics that they're supposed to hit at different levels based on role, damage type(s), etcetera. Long story short, Meleeka's damage is correct for an NPC of her level, but normally we feng shui the numbers around more so that they match up more closely with what a PC in the same basic loadout would look like.

I don't seem to be able to submit a review for this? I think it's because I haven't purchased it but I just played in this and I have to say this is hands down the most fun I've had in pfs2 so far. Don't misunderstand, I've really enjoyed all the pfs2 quests and scenarios I've played in so far but this tiny quest blew everything else out of the water and I'm pretty sure my entire table would agree with me on that.
Without spoiling anything beyond what's already in the product description, I played a paladin of Shelyn who was very conflicted the entire time over the relic and wanting to preserve the martial ART that the rogue monk was creating. This quest was only supposed to take an hour but we spent a solid 4 on it and had SO much fun with the roleplay and characters. All of us got super into it and I cannot stress enough how much fun we all had.

10/10 amazing quest and all of us lost it over how cool the chronicle sheet was. ** spoiler omitted **
I seriously loved all of this quest so so much. Thank you!
I was having the kind of writing day yesterday where you need to write 3,000 words but only 500 came out. As I ubered home, I read this post and was reminded how lucky I am to write for Organized Play and how amazing our fans are. This post brought a huge smile to my face. Thanks so much for all your support. Really glad you enjoyed the quest. I'm hoping we can do more with some of the material here in the future too!
Big shout out to Michael Sayre for all his work as developer on this quest. Cheers!
EDIT: I also ran this for Michael and some other Paizonians a few weeks ago and we had fun, too. Took us about an hour and 20 minutes.

I don't get it - why use maps that are no longer available?
I can go to amazon to get this - at $45...Seriously this is a WotC move guys.
Do better.

I'm also noticing that not only are the quests exempted from the scenario subscription, they are also exempted from the Paizo Advantage discount.
Hmmm.....
I realize the price is only $2 (Insert 80's movie reference here), but I have to wonder what else is exempted from the discounts subscribers get for subscribing. And is there a plan to make the quests part of any subscription, maybe their own?
Just my pair of coppers. Thanks!

No Subscription coming soon. I asked this in general paizo forum last week and Sara Marie reached out .
At this time we have no plans to make the Quests part of a subscription. Thanks for the feedback though, I will certainly keep it in mind.
I did not notice that the scenarios do not get the Paizo Advantage either...

One of the maps that is used in this quest is not available.
It would be helpful if all maps used in the current season could actually be purchased to run the game.
The reporting system seems to think that this quest is repeatable. I assume it is the system that is in error, but thought the good folks at Paizo might want to know.

Due to a technical glitch, the "this scenario is repeatable" message does appear, but the system won't actually treat it as if it's repeatable on the back end. It's a known issue and we're working on a fix for it, thanks!
