Wizard's School Power


General Discussion (Prerelease)


I looked through the posts but frankly there's too many threads I have a doubt about the wizard's class feature school power.

On the chart there's a school power at 1st lvl and at every even # level. But when I got to see the school powers in the spells section, there're only a few powers for each school.

So either the chart is wrong or the wizard gets to choose a new school each time he/she hits the accodring level in the chart or what happens?

Thanks in advance for any clarification on this matter.


Yes, I think they could have been a little clearer on this.

The power they're referencing can be found on page 194 of the BETA book.

Pathfinder BETA, Arcane Schools, page 194 wrote:


In addition to these abilities, each school also grants a number of bonus spells. Whenever a wizard attains the listed level, he can choose one spell from his school to prepare every day as a bonus spell. Instead of gaining a spell of the listed level, the wizard can instead choose a spell of a lower level, which he can then prepare twice per day (except for 2nd level). A universalist can choose spells from any school. Once chosen, these spells cannot be changed.

2nd Level: The wizard can cast any first level spell from his chosen school. This spell is prepared once per day for every two caster levels he possesses.
4th Level: The wizard can cast any second level spell from his chosen school once per day.
6th Level: The wizard can cast any third level spell from his chosen school once per day.
10th Level: The wizard can cast any fifth level spell from his chosen school once per day.
12th Level: The wizard can cast any sixth level spell from his chosen school once per day.
14th Level: The wizard can cast any seventh level spell from his chosen school once per day.
16th Level: The wizard can cast any eighth level spell from his chosen school once per day.
18th Level: The wizard can cast any ninth level spell from his chosen school once per day.

Before you ask (lots of people do, and I did), the bonus spell on 8th level (fourth level spell) is missing on purpose because the wizard gets an 8th level ability listed under his specific school.

Although I have houseruled that missing fourth level spell back in because the list looks incomplete without it... :)
