Basic occultist question

[Bakutaku]

I am unsure, but do Occultist get Arcane Spell Failure chances from armor?
I am confused, because they get school of magic like a wizard and their spells come from the wizard spell list (mostly). On the other hand they follow the psychic magic spell casting rules. I am just curious what people think, because it will determine how I buy armor on an occultist

They use psychic components. Don't worry. Full Plate up if you like!

Heck, if you want to be really silly with it, all your implements could conceivably be different parts of a suit of full plate. (Only ones you couldn't really use explicitly would be Conjuration and Necromancy)

Wow... That's actually a really tempting character idea...

No reason you can't have a skull as a helmet

A bone dwarven boulder helmet makes a good mechanic if you need one.

Though much like a rabbits foot, you wonder how good it could be if you have it...

[Bakutaku]

I thought it worked that way but seeing others agree makes me confident if I have to argue the mechanics.

[Wolfspirit]

... Dumb question, but is there actually a PFS legal source that you can buy a skull from? ;)
