Wizard spell slot # and Dual Class example quote


Pathfinder Second Edition General Discussion


While the CRB states the Wizard gaining slots on a 2+1 pace not unlike the other non-Sorcerers (except school specialists of course), the GMG's pg.192 seems to indicate otherwise that they start with 3 slots on a new level even without a specialized school...

Gamemastery Guide pg. 192 wrote:
Dual-class spellcasters get full access to all the spells of any spellcasting classes they have. For instance, a sorcerer/wizard gets five cantrips in their spell repertoire from sorcerer, five prepared cantrips from wizard, three spontaneous 1st-level spell slots from the sorcerer (with three 1st-level spells in their repertoire), and three 1st-level prepared spell slots from wizard (or four, for a specialist). They keep these spells entirely separate and get the full benefits of both spellcasting class features, even if both classes use the same tradition.

Which side is right, here? Isn't this a major FAQ material not covered as of now, or a dev team member already pointed this out?

Have there been any errata against the GMG yet? Since there do not appear to be any errata or official changes to the Wizard spells by level table in the CRB, it is clearly the GMG quote that is in error.

I think it's best to ignore examples unless the rule is unclear.

And the rule for Wizards gaining spells is quite clear.
