Hey Playground,
My gaming group and I are about to set out on an epic adventure: Rappan Athuk (Pathfinder Version). According to the adventure, it is designed for a party of 6 players. Unfortunately for us, we've only got 3 players. Our question is: What is the best way to keep our power level similar to that expected in the dungeon. A few ideas that we've had are:
1. Have 3 characters who stay approximately 2 levels higher than typically expected.
2. Have 3 players who each run 2 characters at the expected level.
3. Run 3 Gestalt characters (Idea has already been banned by the DM)
These are just the ideas that we have had, but we are certainly open to other suggestions. In fact, they are encouraged.
The main point is that we typically feel that we make good characters, and we actually want to see if our skills are good enough to take on the dreaded Rappan Athuk. The main goal is to have a party composition as close to what was intended by the designers as possible so that our results are as accurate as possible. Thanks for the help in advance!
EDIT: Also, our party make up for just 3 characters would probably be a Summoner(Synthesist), Bard(Archeologist), and a Cleric.
