So does this mean that the section for Spell Trigger contains the rules oversight?


So, here to ask a question about certain Archetypes that get something to the effect of the Spontaneous Casting class ability
In this case, we're talking about the White Mage archetype for the Arcanist.

Now, the White Mage, at level 1, gets the exploit that lets them cast any Cure spell "as if it were on her spell list and prepared". I'm wondering how this interacts with the use of Spell Trigger magic items, and the need to use the Use Magic Device skill.

For Spell Trigger items, it states that "Spell trigger items can be used by anyone whose class can cast the corresponding spell."
- Now, the clarrification with this statement is effectively, whether the Archetype gives the class itself the ability to cast the spell, or if the original class itself, the Arcanist, is able to cast the spell before the archetype is applied?

Now, for Use Magic Device, it states "Normally, to use a wand, you must have the wand’s spell on your class spell list. This use of the skill allows you to use a wand as if you had a particular spell on your class spell list."
- This is where alot of the confusion arises, because spell trigger simply states "can cast" where as UMD states "class spell list". Does this statement imply that the Spell Trigger is supposed to be "class spell list" as well? Or is this because there is only one case that I can name in the Core rulebook that actually allows people to cast spells outside their spell list? (Rogues with the Minor or Major Magic Rogue Talents)


According to the rules of Summon Nature's Ally, RAW seems to imply that you can summon any type of elemental
Including Air, Earth, Fire, Water... and Aether?

Rules as Intended, i'm sure that its supposed to only be the four core elements, but I was wondering, was there an official ruling on whether or not the Elementals that a Druid can summon is restricted to the 4 elements, or are Aether elementals included in the list?
