Player Credit for Modules

I am running my first module for PFS credit and I have a few questions.

Players earn 3 XP and 4 PP (1 and 2 on the slow track) and wealth appropriate to the character's level for completing the whole adventure.

I think I understand what happens if a PC dies. -1 XP, -1 PP, -1/3 wealth with a minimum of 1 XP and 1 PP (1/2 and 0 on the slow track). I do not expect this but if a character dies 3 times or more does he get no gold?

I think I understand what happens if a player misses a session. -1 XP and -1 PP per session missed with a minimum of 1 XP and 1 PP (1/2 and 0 on the slow track). Does this player also loose wealth? I would expect so but the rules do not say so.

I'd agree with your assessment, but would feel that character has the worst group or the worst dice ever.

Thank you for the information.

Do players get 3 XP for all approved modules? Dawn of the Scarlet Sun for example looks like its gold matches up with 1 XP.

A player would only get 1 XP for this module. Dawn of the Scarlet Sun is a Free RPG Day module and is a short 16 page module, versus the normal 32 page modules that grant 3 XP.

PCs don't get docked if they die. Only if they miss out on playing part of the module.

So say a PC dies in a battle. If they are raised before the next encounter in the module and continue, then they do not loose any rewards.

It is up to the GM to determine how much of the module a PC that died participated in.

Don: the first few messages in this thread are from 18 months ago; the module rules were different then IIRC.

The thread was raised. The text is there. Others reading it now may not know the rules have changed.

In any case the rules for Modules can be found in Chapter 6 of the PFS Guide version 4.3.
