Witches, Goats and Greater Restoration


Rules Questions

Dark Archive

I've noticed that the goat familiar of the witch gives the witch Greater Restoration at 14th level and that Greater Restoration is also on the Witch's spell list as a 7th level spell. I checked the initial witch class and there Greater Restoration was not on the witch’s normal spell list and could be obtained via the goat. I believe this is an oversight in the final release. What would be an appropriate replacement for the goat’s 14th level spell?


That's a valid observation - they must have missed that from alpha to final beta conversion. If you look at what the spell list has, and what the familiars give, the only one that makes sense (in my opinion) is Limited Wish.


Hey, can someone corroborate on this? It needs fixing for the final release.


I am tempted to flag it just to get their attention, but that would be rather C/G of me.

I am starting to wonder if this is in the right section...
Wanted to make a post in the "Paizo Products" section but I see LoreKeeper has already done so. Thanks, will have to see if this gets noticed eventually.


just because they see it does not mean they will respond on thread. They are busy after all


Isn't this simply extra flavor for the class? That choosing different familiars unlock different spells for your your witch? I had a quick look and see various spells from different familiars that don't appear on the spell list.

My idea is this is done to ensure that no two witches are alike. And i love the idea of unlocking different spell options based on your familiar a lot more. What i would love to see is somebody rolling a dice to determine which familiar they end up with :P
