Hi all,

Past saturday we played the scenario 3-02-Sewer dragons of Absalom, and we complete all the scenario with the better result and i want to know what items are nice to be the reward of the "Contraband Dividends" boon.

My character is a sorcerer/bard, but accept any advice!!

A 2nd level scroll is a solid choice, but I wouldn't recommend lesser restoration - it's a 3 round casting time. Potions are better for lesser restoration (but not here; that's 300gp).

I went with a really nice emerald ring ('cause I am a master jeweler). For some reason I was under the impression it had to be non-game affecting, but dinnae see that now. A scroll is a good choice, especially for wizards & witches.

Lesser restore scrolls are good for out of combat uses still. As you get higher levels, having large access to such is actually quite useful. In fact they kinda becomes the new CLW wand at higher levels and you should have a few of your own.

Exactly; the PC in question couldn't even activate a scroll. A couple of times previously I'd been hit with ability damage very early on in a scenario with no way to remove it; this was just to provide an 'insurance policy' of sorts against the same thing happening again.

I still prefer scrolls. I'm pretty sure that with potions, you have to make any relevant choices about the effect when brew it, so you have to buy it with the choices already made.

CRB, Potions section of Magic Items chapter wrote:

Potions are like spells cast upon the imbiber. The character taking the potion doesn't get to make any decisions about the effect—the caster who brewed the potion has already done so.

Meaning for spells like Resist Energy or Lesser Restoration, you have to choose which element to resist or type of ability damage you are healing when you buy the potion.
