[ACG] Cleric and Orcale Spells


Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

Is it assumed the Oracle has full access to the Cleric spells in ACG or are they indeed Cleric-only? The absence of a combined Cleric/Oracle header, but the inclusion of the otherwise similar combined Wizard/Sorcerer header, gives me pause.

Pardon the typo in the title.

I know, but the Sorcerer likewise casts spells from the Wizard list but they made a combined Wizard/Sorcerer header for the ACG. The lack of such a header for the Cleric/Oracle, and IIRC no mention of the Oracle in the spell descriptions either, is what makes me wonder.

That's just because wizards and sorcerers are both in the core rulebook and that's how the entry is there. Oracles didn't exist in the CRB so they aren't special enough to be labeled on the spells they get to use.

Fair enough. I'd not through of that particular facet. My assumption was the Cleric/Oracle assumption should apply but PF, being built on a 3x foundation, can often be a crazy-quilt of stitched together exceptions rather than a complete blanket of rules so I thought it best to clarify.

Cheers.

No spells that I'm aware of, even those in the APG, where the Oracle was introduced, are designated as "Cleric/Oracle" spells.

If they were, you'd have to start listing them as "Cleric/Oracle/Warpriest", since all 3 use the same spell list.

Good point. I guess it was the graphical Wizard/Sorcerer header that jumped out and put the bug in my ear. This is all just me being a doofus.
