I just gotta ask. Are we ever going to see any more 5-6 scenarios for Starfinder? I get why we didn't get many in Season 1. We didn't get a 5-6 tier for the special (which IMO was a major oversight) and none of the scenarios in the pipeline are 5-6. What's going on?

I heard from Jessica! She said:

"Yes, of course we have more 5th through 6th-level scenarios coming this year! In fact, the next Starfinder Society Scenario to be announced is a 5-6, so keep an eye on those product pages!"

Keep an eye out, Soluzar!

The guide has been updated for starting a character at a higher level, but nothing I saw mentioned changing the starting gold for such a character. If I make a level 7 character do they start with the same 15 gold to buy gear a 1st level character does?

Has anyone seen a reply to Velisruna's question? I have wondered the same thing. My wife wants to make some other characters for a game this weekend at higher level, but the balance of the game is going to a little off if she shows up with a character missing level appropriate equipment.

An update is definitely needed there.

I think it will be similar to the SFS guide, which specifies that "New characters can choose to begin with the credits-only (lump sum) option OR the collection of permanent items + remaining credits option listed below:"

Followed by an extract from the table "Treasure for New Characters" with the links for the relevant levels (1, 3, 5 and 7).
