Core Bonekeep Party

[Hjal Nelson]

In a more helpful vein:

Infernal Vault has a CL5 Wand of Magic Missiles
Glass River Rescue has the Aegis of Recovery (not a bad choice at all for Bonekeep..)
Tide of Twilight has a unique one-use item that gives Deathward.. also useful for Bonekeep.

Great list of adventures.  I will mull this over this weekend and coordinate tonight on when I can schedule adventures.

[MoffRimmer]

In for a penny...

So here is a list of other modules and adventure paths that could be an option.  My suggestion would be that if we want to look at these, we should probably choose a level/tier to do a "slow track" to include that module.  In many cases, you would go up an entire level and not get the same amount of access to the number of magic items, amount of gp, or prestige as you would with normal PFS modules.  I thought that the Dragon's Demand had some nice expensive magic items listed...

I'm only listing modules that can be played up through level 6...

In for a penny...

I'm only listing modules that can be played up through level 6...

Awesome.  If you guys play slow progression for the whole thing you will be starting Bone Keep this time next year.

On a more realistic note, another thing to consider is that if you play slow progression and have a day job you get to roll 6 day job checks for each level instead of 3 times.  Since you could take 10 on a day job check, you could end up with a minimum of an extra 30gp each level.  If you dump a few skill points into your day job, the totals can go up quickly.  My level 1 grippli street performer bard has +14 to perform and thanks to his gladhandling trait, he makes double on his day job checks... at slow progression, that adds up fast.

[MoffRimmer]

It was asked "how often do we want to run these characters?"

Mathematically speaking -- if we keep on a "normal track", it will take 15 XP/Sessions to get to 6th level.  If we do two a month, it should take around 8 months.  So it will kind of depend on if people feel that we have to keep to some kind of timeline, or if we want to do a slow track at all.

Personally, I'd prefer not to do more than two a month.  But I'm game either way.

[musclecarlover07]

Keep in mind you can always level your character up on your own to. But I see sticking together through a lot of this is a great idea.

So far all that has been mention was an Agile alpenstock. Does that mean you can use weapon finesse with this? If so then David this may be and idea? I mean it is a quaterstaff. Gives you  bonuses to land speed and maybe you could think about doing a trip build...  it would be nice to be able to find a agile short sword or some other light weapon. 

I'm down for whatever 2 a month sounds good. Now I know everyone but Richard and Bill are good to try and play on Fridays. Would Bill and Richard be ok to do that as well?

David maybe can work to get a game or 2 on Friday's... Idk if Carlos and Nicole do core. If they do maybe we can help them with that as well.

[MoffRimmer]

...Now I know everyone but Richard and Bill are good to try and play on Fridays. Would Bill and Richard be ok to do that as well?

Generally speaking, I'm going to say "no" to Fridays.  Family needs to come first.  There might be the occasional "one off" that I might be able to do, but generally, I'm going to stick to Wednesday nights.

[WhiteMane]

I will run what ever you decide, but I want to keep it to Wednesdays...  Family, etc.

[musclecarlover07]

AGAIN - We don't have to do EVERY SCENARIO together. While it would make sense to play as much together, we don't have to do ALL together.

O.J. - 4/6 people play regularly over at Heroes & Dragons. I was asking to try and get a few more games in. Again We can level up on our own if need be. It was a suggestion. O.J. When we do bone keep it will be on Wednesday.

The end game is we run through bone keep together. Even then we do not need to be identical in level or experience. Just to the point we all can play up with minimal issues. So some could be level 6 some could be level 7. If you are level 7 you would have to be able to play both 1 & 2. So You could not be 7.2 and play Bonekeep 1. 7.1 would be fine.

Bill - Thats cool. If we play on a Friday then thats ultimately not going to hurt you. You can always do core games on your own if need be.

[Sir.Gryphon]

Would everyone like to start with The Confirmation on Wednesday, 2 November?

[WhiteMane]
