So I'm working on something and I would like some help redoing the iconics with a lot less wealth. This is the expected wealth I'm working with:
Level.........Total gp Value
1..........No changes
4..........1,200 gp
7..........3,000 gp
10..........6,375 gp
13..........13,500 gp
15..........22,500 gp
These levels don't have stats from Paizo but should be easy to extrapolate.
16..........29,250 gp
17..........37,500 gp
18..........48,000 gp
19..........61,500 gp
20..........79,500 gp
They can be found here: http://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety/pregeneratedCharacters
I also have them at levels 10, 13, and 15 without the reduced gear and I can post their stats for those who want them.
I'm working on a Low-Magic idea for a campaign and I seriously reduced the wealth available. I need to make sure that they can still deal with opponents CR-3 or -4. I basically reduced the wealth to what a character half the level should have. It's going to have a huge impact.
The reason I chose to work with the iconics is because they are prebuilt characters that everyone would have access to.
I was going to work on that next. My plan was to go for 20 but depending on how this exercise works out, I may need 25. I don't want to change them too much yet. I just need to make sure they can deal with the expectations from the Bestiary.
My plan, overall, is to make as few changes to the system. I want all the classes to still be available. I just want them to have far fewer resources so they aren't loaded with a ton of magic. This will limit wizards as well because they won't be able to just use their money to learn new spells.
I think this will also encourage more crafting because it will save them money. I am hoping that this will encourage anyone who wants to craft to create more unique items.
I know that there will be some issues, like damage reduction and incorporeal, but those are easily addressed on the GM side of the screen.
Aren't Pathfinder Society PreGen already 20 Points Buy, from what I have read, PFS use 20 PB as a standard.
The iconics look to be 15 point buy. I haven't looked them all over yet. I looked over Amiri and reduced her gear and she would be able to deal with challenges of an equal level with help from the party. I haven't done all of them yet. I am thinking that the gunslinger may be an issue though because his ammunition can get expensive especially if I reduce the wealth that much.

.They are 15 PB as Adventure Path PreGens.
Interesting. I've just been using their builds from Hero Lab. I didn't compare them to the PFS builds. At 15 point buy, it's challenging but not impossible. I linked to the PFS builds so that others could find them if they wanted to post some ideas.
... I don't have Hero Lab, so I wouldn't know.
*Add Hero Lab to a few wishlists.*
