Magus Missing from scribing rule exception in FAQ?


Pathfinder Society

The Exchange 2/5

Hi, I asked about this in the society FAQ update thread, but didn't get a response. Is Magus going to be added to the question below in the FAQ or was it intentionally left out? I hope it's the former, but would really like to know for sure, since I was planning on starting a magus next weekend. (and certainly may not if they're the only spell scriber in the game who's going to be penalized by having to pay for scrolls on a chronicle before they can scribe them) It seems odd that a magus would have to pay for the same scrolls a wizard, witch, and alchemist can scribe for free off a chronicle, but due to the "no change is to be considered official until it appears either in the most recent update to the Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play (this booklet) or in the
official campaign FAQ." in the new guide, I could definitely see a GM telling me that's the case because magus isn't listed in the FAQ response for the question below. Please respond? Thanks.

I don't see a problem with the wording here.

D'oh! I checked last night to see if it had been changed and it hadn't, yet. Didn't check again this morning--just checked the messageboards! My mistake! Thanks, Mark G! (And sorry to Mark Moreland!)
