I recall reading somewhere (I can't find it now) that you could do independent research to learn new spells, but that it cost 1000 GP per week, and one week per spell level. I also seem to recall something about copying spells from scrolls into your spellbook.

Can you do that in PFS? Judging by the cost of 2nd Level Scrolls (150 GP) and the writing cost of a 2nd level spell (40 GP), could I do that and save money? Or am I limited in PFS to the spells I learn at each level?

I was reading through Ultimate Combat, and I'm intrigued by the gunslinger. But I have a couple questions.

1: I notice that there are 5 levels of gun availability: No Guns, Very Rare Guns, Emerging Guns, Commonplace Guns, and Guns Everywhere. Which weapon availability does PFS adhere to? I'm kind of hoping for commonplace guns so that supplies are cheaper.

2: I noticed that I can craft cartridges, pellets, bullets, ammunition, and even guns. Other than maybe being trained in alchemy crafting for cartridges, do I need anything other than time, a gunsmith's kit, and money to craft these items? What type of rolls do I need to make to do these?

3: Someone mentioned something about dual wielding revolvers. How does that work, and when can I start doing that?

Thanks in advance!

I did some searching and the most direct answer I could find was from 3.5e where the spell-like ability was simply part of the caster and thus required no preparing.

I'm new to Pathfinder, and I'm finishing up making a character, but I wasn't too sure on the rule behind spell-like abilities. Do they require you to prepare them? And do they take up a spell slot?

Thanks in advance!
