New Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Rulings
The following rulings are official for the Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild and go into effect immediately.
- Any equipment a PC owns that comes with a battery is automatically recharged to its full number of charges between scenarios. The same applies to any individually purchased batteries a PC owns. It is assumed that PCs have access to free recharging stations within the Lorespire Complex or from their starship.
- Starfinder Society starships, unless otherwise noted, can recharge batteries. If a scenario involves a starship, and the PCs have access to the ship, they can use the recharge station onboard at no cost.
- The current number of charges on a battery does not impact the sale price of an item. Any items that are sold with a battery (such as energy weapons) must be resold with the associated battery, regardless of the battery's current charge.
- Update the Pulsecaster Rifle (Starfinder Core Rulebook 176) statistics as follows: Capacity 20 charges, Usage 1.
Character Updates: If you previously purchased recharging services on your character between scenarios, you can reclaim any credits spent on these services. If you purchased a pulsecaster rifle for a character, prior to the publication of this blog post, you must use the new statistics, as presented above, or immediately exchange the weapon back at full credit value (instead of the standard 10% resale cost).
