I am running a campaign where I am trying to use nothing but Pathfinder Society Scenarios for the adventures. This isn't a PFS campaign, it's just something we wanted to try. However, I am having to adapt the scenarios for higher level parties as we go through the campaign, currently at 8th level. I know, I could have picked something more level appropriate but I like the Blakros scenarios and I'm trying to use them to keep somewhat of a running campaign thread going.
Anyway, I have to adapt the Penumbral Accords to a level 8 party consisting of a Human Aether Kineticist, a Dwarf Fighter focusing on Shield Bashing, a Human Cleric focused on healing, and an Elf Alchemist going for the Master Chymist Prestige Class. We are not adventuring in Golarion but that doesn't change the adventure mechanics at all.
Here's my ideas so far.
Use a Mohrg with the Advanced template for the Skeletal Guardian in area 1
Use and Advanced Shadow Ice Golem for the Cold Storage Sentinel in area 2. Use the rules for Slick Ice from the Paizo Blog
Give Mazzel Gol 2 more levels of alchemist in area 3. Increase the strength of his magical ring and cloak to +2
Increase the number of guards to 4 and make them Slavers (fighter 2/rogue 2) from the GMG in area 4
Leave the shadow hound as is in area 5
Give Uthil Mak 2 assistants, perhaps Bladed Fists. Make Uthil Mak an unchained monk. Increase the strength of his magical bracers and cloak to +2 in area 7
Tactics. One of the guards in area 4 go and release the hound in area 5 when they are attacked. In area 7, the assistants will try to run interference so the Uthil Mak can complete the ritual.
Treasure. Other than the gear I have listed, I'm not increasing the treasure. The party, as mercenaries, is being awarded with a manor worth about 15,000 gold for doing this mission.
I wanted to put this out there to see if anyone had any better ideas for how to increase the challenges of this scenario.
