Adding cards to vault

[RoninwarAC]

I am pretty new at Pathfinder Adventure card game. I have the core set and am getting the CoTCT expansion tomorrow. What is the recommended progression for combining cards from both sets to the Vault? For example do you still include level 0 boons and/or monsters in the vault if you are on level 2 or 3 scenario? Also there seems to be a ton of different blessings in the expansion do you include all of them as well? Any help or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hi RoninwarAC!

Each storybook will have its own instructions for how to configure the vault for each adventure. In CotCT, for example:

Adventure 1 says to use all level 0 and 1 cards from Core and CotCT.

Adventure 2 says to add all level 2 cards from Core and CotCT.

Adventure 3 says to remove all level 0 non-Veteran monsters and barriers and any number of level 0 non-Veteran boons, then add the level 3 cards from Core and CotCT.

The Dragon's Demand adventure path has a little bit different rules - all level 0-3 Coreboons are added to the vault right from the beginning, but you only add the banes that match the level of the adventure you're playing in (this is to make sure that there are enough boons in the vault to build character decks and locations with the smaller box).
