[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 7661186, member: 1"] If you've been wondering how non-core spells will be handled in Paizo's new Core Campaign for Pathfinder Society, look no further. Developer John Compton has some info to share. [HQ]"We had decided early on to allow wizards to scribe non-Core spells they come across, but as many of you pointed out, that leaves bards, clerics, druids, paladins, rangers, and sorcerers without any means of learning non-Core spells whatsoever. In a way this makes sense, but it's a rather unsatisfying, perverse kind of sense."[/HQ] [PRBREAK][/PRBREAK] So here's what's happening, straight from the horse's mouth: [INDENT] [hq] Wizard PCs can scribe non-Core spells from spellbooks and scrolls during the scenario, but the opportunity ends when the scenario does. Record any such spells learned on the Chronicle sheet, and have the GM initial the note. If an NPC prepared spellcaster has a spellbook but no spells listed in it, he is assumed to have any spells he has prepared in the book. Even if he missed his opportunity during the scenario, a wizard PC can learn spells from any scroll that appears on a Chronicle sheet by purchasing it and scribing it as normal. Other PCs able to cast spells—spontaneously or from a divine spell list that does not depend on a spellbook—can learn spells they find in scroll form so long as they buy the scroll and expend it to add the spell to her list of legal spells; spontaneous spellcasters must still expend known spell slots in order to learn the spell. These PCs cannot learn non-Core spells from spellbooks.[/hq] [/INDENT] If you haven't heard about the new Core Campaign, [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?411467-Pathfinder-Society-Has-A-New-Core-Campaign"]clickee here[/URL]!
