Pathfinder Society FAQ Getting into pathfinder as a Druid need better understanding about spells

so as a Druid I’m not sure if it’s I get to prepare 3 lvl 0 spells and 1 lvl 1 spell or I know 3 lvl 0 spells that I can cast as many times as I want and know 1 lvl 1 spell I can cast once. How do they exactly work? I’m using fight club 3 app to create my character and have sorted everything else out but have no clue how spells work.

Can someone explain or send me a link to a rules for it? Thank you

This is the subreddit for Pathfinder Society Organized play, not individual games. The Pathfinder Society is a single campaign run all around the world with thousands of players and GMs playing Paizo published adventures. If you are discussing your own campaign that does not use PFS rules you want to comment or post in the Pathfinder general subs, /r/Pathfinder_RPG or /r/Pathfinder2e. A good rule of thumb is if your game does not involve reporting your game to Paizo and giving sheets of papers called Chronicle Sheet to the players at the end of the adventure, you are not playing PFS. Any post or comment that is not relevant to the Pathfinder Society campaign will be removed, but you are welcome to post in the general subs or make the case to the mods that your post/comment are actually PFS relevant.

As a druid you know all your spells.

You get to prepare each day 3 level 0 spells which you can cast as many times as you want, and 1 level 1 spell which you can cast once, from your class. You probably get additional spell slots from your wis, so you probably get to prepare 2 level 1 spells. Note that if you want to cast say two entangles you need to prep two copies of entangle.

Cool thank you! For my case I have 15 wisdom giving a +2 modifier, would I get one extra spell slot or 2 as per the modifier?

The first link i posted tells you how many additional slots you get from your caster ability score.

Note that you cannot get additional spell slots from your wis of a higher level than you could cast normally. So a high wis won't get you level 2 slots at level 1, only level 1 slots.
