Level Cap?


Pathfinder Society

2/5 *

I've been helping a few locals convert their characters recently, and someone asked whether there is a level cap in Pathfinder Society. Another player declared that the cap is 12th level (that is, once you hit 12th level your character must retire). But I wasn't sure that was the case. I looked through the player's guide and couldn't find a statement to this effect. Since the 10-11 subtier is the highest PS adventures seem to go, eventually your character won't have any challenge--but is there a mandatory retirement at a particular level?

12 is the level cap. I remember reading a post by Josh a while ago that confirmed this, which also gave his reasoning for it.

Personally I wish it were higher, but controlled by only having a very short list of high level mods allowing you to take your high level character off the shelf for some fun every now and then.

Currently though - level 12 is the cap.

Josh has said there will be periodic scenarios that only 12th level characters can play without gaining experience, so the characters are not completely retired.


Currently 12 is the cap.

No one is 12 yet. We'll release our first Tier 12 scenario later this year. We're discussing if that will be Tier 12 or Tier 12-16. Unsure at this time.
