Any threads or place I can look for specifics on how scaling magic items on chrobicke sheets work?

Can be sold?
Take a percentage on your future wealth?
Any other drawbacks?

Typo there: Chronicle

Silver Crusade 4/5 5/55/55/5 RPG Superstar 2013 Top 8

It varies by item. Some require gold/prestige to upgrade, and some take a percentage of your future wealth.

The only scaling items that are legal are detailed on the Chronicle sheet, I believe. Are there any in Additional resources you can just buy?

I'm curious about the one on:

Season 7:
#7-15

Quote:

reduce all gold you earn on chronicle sheets by 5%

your level in the bauble column ... if you sell the item, use the corresponding value as the market price

So I lose 5% of all sheets?

Including day job? (Yes as is on a chronicle sheet)
Including sold items? (No as is on ITS sheets)
If I sell it is the value of it at my level on bauble?

Is it just me, or does this sound expensive?:

Bought at 3rd it costs 5994 gp
300+1290/20*3+1865/20*3+1865/20*3+3252/20*3+3252/20*3+5458/20*3+5458/20*3+7 813/20*3+7813/20*3 until you ding 12th.
If you bought the max benefit of 1 potion per session, it would only cost:
15*50+12*300
4350 gp

I guess if you are intended to sell it off at 11th, it is beneficial?

earned, that'd be scenario and day job. selling stuff isn't earning, it's trading.

They're each spelled out on an item by item basis in the Chronicles they appear. Those are the only scaling items that can be used in the campaign.

Having ignored the printed ones because they never seemed viable options, I'm only concerned with the legal ones on chronicle sheets as I indicated in the initial question.

So with 5% of all gold being taken including day jobs, I'm trying to figure out why these are attractive. Compared to just outright buying the separate benefits.

Items which change the slot a benefit normally comes from or combines multiple effects into 1 slot come at a premium.
