quick reference to max possible gp at any given level?

[wyld]

.
i am reviewing my players' stat sheets and wanted to know if there is a way to know the max gp at any praticular level.

assuming playing pathfinder society and it is normal advancement: +1 level per 3 scenarios (or 1 module) played, getting 1xp per scenario (or 3 for module). i am using at the pf wealth table as a guideline -- would there be any case where a pc can gain considerably more gp per session than what is prescribed in the chronicles? or is there a definite max?

if not a specific amount of gp per level, then is there a range (e.g. a pc may happen to play consistently out-of-tier)?

i hope what i'm asking makes sense... thx

Gold, not really. At least not as much anymore. If a character is playing up they can get a little more gold but not as much as they used to from what I understand.

It's very easy to get more 'wealth' though if you spend prestige points on wands, masterwork weapons and armor and other items.

Consider for example a ranger who has just played through three scenarios and is about to hit level 2.

They could have with prestige points:
Darkwood Masterwork Composite Longbow (+3 Str) - 730g
Masterwork Agile Breastplate - 650g
Masterwork Greatsword - 350g

They would also have the gold from the three scenarios which would be somewhere between 1400-1600 depending on which ones were played.

Would be roughly 3200 in wealth, equivalent of a level 3 character by the wealth tables. It would be more if the greatsword was say a Wand of Cure Light Wounds instead of a greatsword.

Wyld: There are too many variables, depending on how long the PC has been active in PFS.

Scenario gold, even in a specific sub-tier, can vary by a bit up and down.

Playing up used to give you the higher sub-tier gold, not just the average between the two sub-tiers.

Playing modules at the lowest possible level will give above-average gold if done a lot, even now.

Add in the scaling benefits of a day job roll after every scenario, and a high skill, and it gets a bit difficult to do more than just amke sure the PC has a full set of chronicles and ITS, and that they are all filled out correctly.

With a bit of time, a calculator (or spreadsheet), and the source books for all items purchased, you can run out the gold to see if it is correct.

thx for the insight.

let's be specific: would 200k+ gp for a pc who just leveled to 13-1 seem a lot?

Since WbL for that is significantly lower, it would, at least, call for a quick check-through of his chronicles.

If he has Expedition Manager or some such, it can mess up the numbers, but it would be worthwhile to at least look over his chronicles, IMO.
