[QUOTE="al_fredo, post: 6276632, member: 81597"] HI..Three things!! So I see the Favor/Prestige system got a tweak in the new Player's guide. I like it for the better. As an example, my level6 players of Prestige 3 with Risur...so getting an Uncommon item up to level 10 (which I don't even think they could afford) is instant. And if the party has more than 8 (i have 4 PCs), it takes "A Day". So...It makes getting Uncommon much easier....and typically, a day wait. I feel that's fair. I will likely revoke my rule that made RHC evidence locker items 'not count'. It says the party can call a favor per group per day, and uses the example of requisitioning a flaming sword. Are we saying that each item requisitioned is a favor, and if my PCs level up - only one PC can get a new item (or it takes a day per item)? I don't like that, and I'm thinking gear requests don't count against. [COLOR=#8b4513]Secondly: Risur Favors: * Level 1.
