No Minimum Spellcasting Ability Scores?


Rules Discussion


In PF1e, a spellcaster needed a minimum casting stat of 10 + the level of the spell she wanted to cast. I'm still working my way through the rules, but does this requirement no longer exist in PF2e?

For Focus spells I found this, nothing else so far

"You can’t cast a focus spell if its minimum level is greater than half your level rounded up, even if you somehow gain access to it."

There are no casting stat minimums. You can be a 10 wisdom Cleric who casts 10th level spells (with bad DCs, admittedly).


So I'm not crazy or a bad reader. Thanks!
