On the rough order of twice as fast or so. That said, it is still somewhat slow.I've been playing a fair bit of PFS recently. In a session that is usually about 3.5 hours of playing time we generally find it no problem at all to finish a scenario (NOT a module, the PFS scenarios are shorter). A very combat oriented scenario (e,g a dungeon crawl) will have a minimum of 6 combat encounters. In contrast, when I was playing LFR in a slot that was about the same length a scenario pretty much always consisted of exactly 3 combat encounters and 1 skill challenge.I've almost always used a battle mat with Pathfinder. Although its not actually necessary it still helps everybody to visualize what is going on and still is quite useful.</blockquote>
