Wands / Potions


Pathfinder Society

1/5

Are there any restrictions within Pathfinder Society as to which spells can and cannot be made into wands or potions? I had a GM once tell me that a potion or wand cannot be made from any spell with the target being "self" or "personal" etc. Is this the case?

It's not a Society restriction perse. The magic item creation rules still apply (even though PCs can't take the feats), and as such you cannot create potions with the range of personal. This is as per the Core Rule book page 551 under 'Creating Potions.' As per page 553 under the heading 'Creating Wands' there do not appear to be any such restrictions.

Hope that helps!

Ok, that reflects my own research, I just wanted a clarification.

As mentioned it is the case for potions (general rules) but not the case for wands.
