Spending multiple PA for items


Pathfinder Society

*

Okay, I'm looking and I haven't found it, but is there a rule for spending multiple PA in a mod? The example is my magus cashing in 8 PA to get 3 1st level wands and a MW cold iron weapon. I think that is legal, but I cannot find support one way or the other. Am I just missing it, or is there a written ruling on this?

Look on the table of prestige awards in the Guide. The limit is one purchase per adventure. Also, you may only purchase one item, you can't "mix and match" if your item costs less than 150/750.

Actually, the guide specifically says there is only a limit if the GM wants one:

Guide pg 27 wrote:

Characters may not spend Prestige Points during combat. For the sake of simplicity, many GMs might

consider limiting characters to spending Prestige Points
only once per gaming session.

So as long as your GM was ok with it, you are good to go.

However, both the 1 PP and 2 PP purchase options have the following footnote: (bold for emphasis)

footnote 3, page 26 wrote:
Once per session, you can acquire any single item of this cost or less from your faction by spending the appropriate number of Prestige Points. Items purchased this way are worth 0 gp and cannot be sold.

Incorrect. The purchasing option of spending prestige has its own limit, separate from any the GM may wish to impose. Check Table 5-4, superscript 3:

Quote:

Bolding mine.

Edit: Ninja'd.

Ah, I was mistaken. I did not look at the specific purchase options. Thanks for the correction!
