Question on The Scoured Stars Invasion

[trollbill]

I will be attending GenCon this year and want to play The Scoured Stars Invasion special. The problem is, the character I really want to play this with is 5th level, but my friends won't have anything higher than 4th. Can I play the 3-4 Tier with a level 5-6 character? I realize I will get less rewards, but we would at least all be able to play together.

When I've GMed specials before, I've had players out of tier.

I don't know why Starfinder would be different from Pathfinder in this regard.

You'd just get the out of tier credits for between tiers 3-4 and 5-6.

Thanks. I have had GMs allow this before but I was never sure if it was officially okay.

I have seen it done both ways... and have had tables full of people unhappy when the across tier friends were split up - they had a full table organized, and then they were forced apart.
