I was rereading Armor Masters Handbook (weighing the Tower Shield feats vs Tower Shield Specialist, which this PC is) when I notice something ironic about Spell scribed Armor.
It's illegal in PFS play, which I thought was a shame given tattooed spells is legal, but according to the book it was a Society member that rediscovered the lost art!
Ironic yes? ;)

Rereading the section, I think they should have limited the slots for each armor to something than armor bonus
I mean a war priest with an Armor of +8 armor bonus (or higher) rocking aces to 8 Spell levels of 'scrolls' is a bit much. Tattooed spells have a restriction to slot and reasonable access (you can't read the tat on your back slot...)

the 8 spell levels never seemed that bad to me. at most ur looking at 8 1st lvl spells on the full plate armor. i think the biggest issue is the crafting rules that apply.
No more impactful than buying a scroll or spell tattoo I'd say. We are allowed to figure base cost for buying scrolls, potions, spell tattoos and wands..
I think it's the potential to 'load out' your armor that got the ban

Kind of, but not really. There are also likely in-universe Pathfinder Society members who can craft magic items, but no Player Character can. That's all the PFS-legal thing means - whether or not a PC can have the option, not whether or not it exists at all in the setting.

To complete the flavor of the ban, they really need to mention putting a price on the head of the Pathfinder society member who created it. ;)
