Ruined Tower

Ruined Tower
A decayed tower that looms over the plains, this ancient setting has withstood both the elements and the test of time. Decayed but unyielding, the tall structure remains. A half-destroyed staircase with unusually tall steps leads to the higher floors, and the tower walls are covered with eroded inscriptions and images.

Choices

• At the start you can leave and come back later as long as you didn't attempt first [Athletics 23] check.
• On the first stage Athletics DC 23 check (+90xp) can be repeated until you pass it.
• On the second stage you can
  1. Knowledge (World) DC 26 check (+240xp) for extra experience.
  2. Athletics DC 24 check (+120xp) to progress further.
     • Failing the [Athletics 24] check gives you Reflex DC 18 save (+33xp).
       • Failing it ends the encounter
       • Passing it allows you to attempt [Knowledge (World) 26] (if you didn't pass it before) and [Athletics 24] again.
       • Failing [Athletics 24] for the second time ends the encounter.
     • Passing [Athletics 24] reveals Kellid Barbarian Camp and ends the encounter.

Solution

• The best experience gain +488xp is to:
  1. Pass [Athletics 23]
  2. Pass [Knowledge (World) 26]
  3. Fail [Athletics 24]
  4. Pass [Reflex 18]
  5. Pass [Athletics 24]
• But ignoring failing the [Athletics 24] step is +450xp and much less time spent reloading the game.
