2 Questions

[Mynex]

My search-fu on the forums fails me... so I come to ask for help in finding an official answer!

Question 1
What makes a spell (A/D/P) common or uncommon?

Question 2
In UE the random treasure tables have this whole lesser/greater minor/medium/major thing... how is that determined for non-UE tables that don't have that division (Earlier books and things like scrolls and potions)?

For example, I look at ACG and it has wondrous items, rings, staves with the lesser/greater minor/medium/major thing... but nothing for scrolls and potions (i.e. spells) that I saw...

So some, help/clarification/pointing to the answer please!

Thank you.

Question 2 should be covered in the tables:

1) Up to GM discretion and setting. Some very general guidelines could be established, such as fireball being common and shadow anchor being rare.

Melkiador - Yes, the minor/medium/major bit is covered, however the lesser/greater thing is not. How is that determined?

CampinCarl9127 - I figured that was the case, but I was hoping for some actual rules for it from Paizo (in some book I missed or here on the forums).

Thank you for the responses.
