Message: <blockquote data-quote="starkad" data-source="post: 1840056" data-attributes="member: 6803">Thanks Zeph.I have stressed to him that the pattern is useless without the 4 schema, and even went so far as to tell him that he has no idea what it ultimately makes. He wants to study it, though. I don't want to hamper their creativity, so I am going with it, but I am reducing the reward a little bit as a result. (From 2,000 to 1,000 since it says she gives a reduced reward for only the creation pattern of 1,000).Also, I am having the party speaker make bluff rolls when she asks if they found anything else, and giving her a sense motive roll. I don't want to screw them, but they'd be outright lying to her face (the cleric of the silver flame, LG, in the group won't like that one bit).I've altered the adventures in such a way as to allow a couple/few weeks between each module to let the artificer make his goods, and not hinder him. One compromise we were working on, was allowing his artificer pool to 'spill over' DURING a module... So if he leveled during a module twice, he wouldn't be penalized for it. But the instant I read the intro to the next module, the pool from the previous level goes bye-bye. We haven't put it into play yet, but it sounds like it might work.I'm still stumped, though. The artificer refuses to tell the group what the creation pattern does. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
