Outside of the fact that an AL character has to be RAW/no home brew, what are some builds that seem popular but might not be as fun/interesting in an AL one shot focused setting?
[5.5e] Are there any Adventurers League legal items, spells, class/subclass features, etc that boost the amount of gold you get for selling items? I'm playing an Artificer and want to be able to craft legendary items when the time comes so I'm trying to make sure I have the required Gold and Downtime Days ready when I get there, but a lot of ways to make Gold **require** Downtime Days, so I'm trying to math out the best ways to get the most gold for the least amount of Downtime Days spent. However under 5.5e rules by default you sell items for 50% of their value (so Plate armor sells for 750GP) while the cost for crafting an item is *also* 50% of the item's value so you can't just craft an item and flip it for a profit without external factors (and Artificer doesn't decrease the Gold cost to craft an item, just the Downtime Days required. Right now I'm aware of the 2 Bastion options Storehouse and Kundarak Vault which will increase the amount you can sell items for, so looking for anything outside of those.
Dare you face the furious might of the Aether Tyrant and save the Eschantrii from the machinations a genie cult
THE TARRASQUE AWAKENS!!!
"The arrogance of men is thinking nature is in our control and not the other way around. Let them fight."
The entirety of the Material Plane - is in peril as the Elder Primordial Guardians awaken, a scheme set in motion by the Cult of the Beasts. The cult seeks to release the final Guardian of Aether, long imprisoned and sleeping within a hidden demiplane. Adventurers and allies of the Eschantrii, a circle of druidic sages, must stop the cult before their nefarious tampering unleashes a force capable of unraveling the natural order.

The actual adventure states the following 'She reappeared in DDEX3-7' and 'was first encountered in DDEX3-3' and 'played out across the third season of D&D Expeditions'. This really throws me because I've spent my time reading and enjoying the first season of expeditions and the DDEP 4 is a great finale. I have spent no time in seasons 2 or 3 and I really don't want to have to know those, or even worse ruin them as future adventures. So, what's going on here and does anyone have some input on handling this without the burden of reading through those seasons and ruining the ability for players to play them later?
Just wondering why these modules aren’t on DMsguild
CCC-BMG-HULB1S Extinction
CCC-BMG-HULB2S Winter’s Feast
CCC-BMG-PHLAN1S Uprising
CCC-BMH-PHLAN2S Damnation
All I can see in the adventure catalogue is that they were “Special/Interactive”
