I am DMing POTA and it adventure league it says when you finish an episode you get so much exp downtime and gold etc. In the book it does not have episodes it has chapters but each chapter has multiple episodes. I just want to make sure exactly how much for the entire campaign to put towards a character I want to make.  Or at least give me a classification of what constitutes an episode. So I can figure it out. Right now they are on chapter 5.

Chapter 6 is divided into two sections. A Pre-Adventure and a bunch of Tier 2 Side Quests.

  • The Pre-adventure is required in AL, as characters cannot start at higher than 1st level, necessitating its use. It is for this reason, and this reason alone that the pre-adventure awards DT and rewnown.
  • The sidequests are exactly that - sidequests. They do not award DT or Renown, and are there to be used as needed/desired, mainly for the purpose of the Funzies, or to supplement party XP.

​Parties don't gain DT or Renown for completing every facet of Chapters 3 - 5 either. They only gain DT/Renown each time they complete a Haunted Keep, Elemental Temple, or Elemental Fane...Fighting manticores, helping out NPCs, et... don't award any DT or renown (but may provide other rewards).

I would suggest you join the AL Facebook group. Frank Foulis has posted a very good way of breaking up the Princes Hardbook into 'parts' for terms of REnown and downtime.

I should also point out that several of the campaign staff have come up with the exact same list independently (myself included). As such, I suspect that this will become the official breakdown in a future FAQ update.

Title for that FAQ update is poat-dated to be legal in two years. I know it's a typo, but couldn't help pointing it out. :P
