PFS 29: Shipyard Rats [SPOILERS]

[bdk86]

I'm looking through this module and had some questions. If these have been addressed in another thread, please feel free to point it out/link it as a response; I have not been able to find answers searching the forums.

Question 1 SPOILER:

In Act 1, it appears as though the Druid in the encounter has not had Bonus Spells applied for his Wisdom score. The Tier 1-2 statblock only has 'Shillelagh (Used)' for his 1st level spells, even though he should have two of them for day (1 Base+1 for Wisdom Score). In the Tier 6-7 Statblock he olny has three 1st level spell (Cure Light Wounds, Longstrider, & Shillelah (Used)) and two 2nd level spells (2x Bulls Strength (Used)). Based on his Wisdom score he should have four 1st levels and three 2nd levels (3 Base+1 Bonus and 2 Base+1 Bonus) Is this intentional?

Question 2 SPOILER:

In Act 4 the fighter stat blocks include Combat Expertise. Their intelligence scores are 10; the prerequisite is 13. While not too much of a problem at Tiers 1-2 and 3-4, at 6-7 this makes their feat chains invalid. Should their INT scores adjusted, the prerequisite waived, or the feat(s) replaced?

EDIT: Found another item to ask about.

There was a thread for this scenario but it has been archived. You missed that the cleric is wearing heavy armor and doesn't have proficiency :)

The scenario is rife with errors, but a lot of the GenCon scenarios are like that. Josh has GM's constantly poking him to hurry up and release twice the number of scenarios that he's accustomed to, often using newly released rules. You are not going to see Paizo revisit a 14 month-old scenario and fix stat block errors, so apply whatever fixes you deem appropriate. Neither of those encounters were ever very challenging. The poor druid has never lived long enough to cast another spell, and the fighters are practically naked--let them have a 13 Int out of pity.

I'd read on the armor issue and vaguely recall a discussion of the combat expertise issues. I'm glad to know it was archived and I wasn't going crazy when I couldn't find said discussion. Thanks!
