PFS Potion question

Ok so this might be a silly question for PFS but i was unable to find a clean answer out there for PFS.

So when you make a potion, it follow the same progression for spell like ablities

Wiz/Sorc, Cleric, Druid, Paladin, etc.......

Potions are limited to level 3 spells.

So, is a potion of Neutralize Poison (As an example) possible?

Neutralize Poison is level 4 cleric... so would not be valid

But is level 3 Druid Ranger.

so is a potion of Neutralize Poison PFS Legal?

All potions, scrolls, wands, and other consumables are made by clerics, druids, or wizards in Pathfinder Society Organized Play. The only exceptions are spells that are not on the cleric, druid, or wizard spell list. For example, a scroll of lesser restoration must be purchased as a 2nd-level scroll off the cleric spell list and may not be purchased as a 1st-level scroll off the paladin spell list. If a spell appears at different levels on two different lists, use the lower level spell to determine cost. As an example, poison would be priced as a 3rd-level druid spell instead of a 4th-level cleric spell. All potions, scrolls, and wands are available only at the minimum caster level unless found at a higher caster level on a Chronicle sheet. For the sake of simplicity, there is no difference between an arcane and divine scroll or wand. Thus a bard and cleric may both use the same scroll of cure moderate wounds. Finally, scrolls of spells of 7th level or higher are not permitted for characters below level 12 unless you gain access to them on a Chronicle sheet that specifically lists them.

So if a spell can be cast by a Cleric, Druid or Wizard it must be made by one of them.

If the spell only exists on the list of another class, heal mount is a Paladin only spell for example, so could be purchased as a level 3 spell from a Paladin. Lesser restoration on the other hand must be purchased from a level 2 Cleric not a level 1 Paladin (sad face)

In your case neutralise poison is on both Cleric and Druid, so you use the lower list to calculate the availability and price.

So yes you can have a potion of neutralise poison in your sack.

(Also this is PFS specific so should probably be in the PFS forum and I have flagged it for moving as such)

Slight tangent: slow poison is almost always better than neutralize poison. Slow it until you get back to down and either neutralize it or let it work its way out of your system.
