Pathfinder Society Scenario #5-19: Demonic Afterparty

I'm really happy with this scenario. There have been a lot of editing/development/writing misses in scenarios this year. I'm happy to say this one doesn't suffer from those problems.

I do have a few notes.

First, the early combats (in low tier anyway) are still too easy. Cultists and quasits are such pushovers. Tiny creatures are just awful combatants in PF2E, no flanking, extra movement to get into position, do not like. The low-tier demonologist caster has 0 bite. He might as well fall over dead when initiative is rolled.

Secondly, the labyrinth skill challenge:
The results are too compressed. Only 2 success points separate the worst result from the best result.
This whole skill challenge only affects initiative in the next combat. It would be nice to have a more meaningful result here, whether part of the success condition or treasure bundles or something. The challenge is also VERY easy. I've run this 6 times so far, and I have yet to have a group not obtain double the number of PCs or very close to it.

Lastly, there is no map provided for the first combat. It's easy to improvise one, there really should be one included.

That said, overall it's a very good adventure. I love the flavor of the locust knight. And the (what I assume is) foreshadowing for future season 6 scenarios is excellent.

This was a thoroughly enjoyable and (from a player's perspective at least), well written adventure. The rooms and exploration had so much detail and flavor, the encounters were interesting and varied, and the combats had interesting characters and mechanics. Tons of fun and sets a high bar, looking forward to more adventures like this.
