First, to be clear, I do know what the remaster is. I do know that, in most games, I can use original PF2 content--but if I want to, for example, play a PFS scenario, or in a game where the GM prefers to adopt remaster content as it comes out, I will indeed need to use remastered content. Furthermore, I am specifically delaying my own foray into GMing until there is more remastered content available, for the very same licensing reasons Paizo is doing the remaster.
I did notice that glitterdust and faerie fire are combined last night; a player in a game I'm in on the forums here used the former and I looked it up and saw they were merged. This is probably the biggest challenge I have with the remaster: finding how spells have changed.
I also promise I did search for the spells I mentioned and did not find them. Not sure what happened there. Maybe a glitch as AoN updates things? I do software myself and I'm willing to blame goblins hiding in 4U servers :)
Life Boost is a good start, but doesn't really compare to the other options.
I appreciate the silence in snow recommendation; two recommendations definitely means it's something I should look at.
Flexible casting is interesting! It's a lot to give up, but then sacrificing two hexes is pretty significant as well. It's on the list of things I'm considering.
Everything said here suggests that the primal spell list, perhaps combined with the flexible casting archetype, will get me most of the way there--complete with snowball vending machine! No wall of force, but the PF1 witch doesn't get that, either; well, I know where to find the arcane list if I want it.
I love the theme of The Resentment, though! When I make the character I have in mind, I may think of ways to spin the lore of Silence in Snow to be closer to The Resentment.
Overall, this has been super helpful and educational. Thank you to everyone who's responded so far :)
