I was talking with someone about some of the very expensive items that have kind of weird or difficult to adjudicate interactions in Pathfinder, like Mirror of Mental Prowess (no save mind reading and infinite semi-defined srying+teleportation?) that are likely never really things that come up in PFS because noone has ever saved enough money to afford one. However, its possible with enough focus to get some really expensive things, especially on seekers or a wizard with a crafted bonded item, and it made me really curious what the most expensive thing anyone has ever seen bought in PFS.
That made me wonder about a few of the other things that could get big in PFS, and wondered what the biggest things people have seen. I havne't done any seeker tier play, so I would assume there's definitely bigger things out there, but here's a few of mine:
Most Expensive Item: 45800 for Strand of Prayer Beads
Highest Skill Check Result: 77 on an identify check vs. a nightwalker
Highest To-Hit Roll: 52 from a level 11 fighter backed up by a buffing skald
Most Damage in a single hit: Approximately 150 from a Scythe critical on a Cavalier
What are the biggest things you've seen in PFS 1e?

Highest damage I've rolled in 1e was a scythe crit with my Enlarged Barbarian on a +5 Holy Human Bane Furious Scythe. It was in the realm of 250 points of damage. The barbarian was... I think level 17 when I did this? I think it was in Moonscar? It was years ago, I don't remember.
Between STR, Power Attack, Horn of the Criosphinx, Beast Totems, my attack was 6d6+54, which turned into 12d6+216 on the crit (2d6x4+2d6 Holy+2d6 Bane).
I rolled two crits on that pounce, and it was glorious.

IIRC, there was a feat chain that said if one attack crit in your full attack, your entire full attack critted. Or something to that effect. It got nerfed at some point, in any case.
Anyway, before that nerf, a friend made a Druid/Monk multiclass with that feat chain and then turned into a giant octopus, with a beak attack and 8 tentacle attacks. He managed to crit. Can't remember the final damage total, but it was filthy.
Not in PFS, but entirely PFS legal: a friend built a character built on AC. At level 20, he had over a 100 AC, and four stats to AC.
