	*The general setting of [[Golarion]] has been set at a point where all the 1E [[Adventure Path]]s have taken place and were successfully finished. This means that, among other things, the Worldwound in Sarkoris has been shut, the Whispering Tyrant is free to raise hell, and Cassandalee the android is now a full god with a divine portfolio.		*The general setting of [[Golarion]] has been set at a point where all the 1E [[Adventure Path]]s have taken place and were successfully finished(except for [[Kingmaker]], which due to the video game's success got retconned into a new expanded version happening in the present). This means that, among other things, the Worldwound in Sarkoris has been shut, the Whispering Tyrant is free to raise hell, and Cassandalee the android is now a full god with a divine portfolio.
	*Magic has been divided into various types: Arcane, Divine, Occult and Primal. Classes are generally restricted to one spell list(ex: Wizards cast Arcane, Druids cast Primal, Clerics cast Divine, etc...) Spell Strength(DC) is no longer strictly tied to Spell Level(i.e. Glitterdust and similar spells can stay useful forever), but attack spells whose effects increase by caster level must now be learned/prepared at those higher levels(i.e.: a wizard who can cast 6th-level spells must prepare [[Fireball]] as a level 6 spell to get the full power out of it). Some spells can be heightened at any level, others gain effects only at set levels(i.e. a 3rd-level spell may have additional effects when cast at 6th level, but none at 4th or 5th). Cantrips are automatically heightened to half the character's level.		*Magic has been divided into various types: Arcane, Divine, Occult and Primal.

But aside from the loss in feats(which is honestly a big part of some classes' power), you never actually stop progression in your main class.
	**This is also pulling double duty for [[Prestige Class]]es, as setting books let you access specific organizations like the Hellknights and Pathfinder Society, and some archetypes even branch off of other archetypes by circumventing the three-feat limit (See: Hellknight Armiger to Hellknight or Hellknight Signifier). The biggest game-changer introduced in the ''Advanced Player's Guide'' wasn't the four new classes, but actually the whopping ''36'' Archetypes the book introduced. Some specialising in particular fighting styles or skill sets, some being more mystical in nature, and others adapting some of 1e's Prestige Classes to the new ruleset (e.g., Dragon Disciple).		**This is also pulling double duty for [[Prestige Class]]es, as setting books let you access specific organizations like the Hellknights and Pathfinder Society, and some archetypes even branch off of other archetypes by circumventing the three-feat limit (See: Hellknight Armiger to Hellknight or Hellknight Signifier).
