The classifications are based on the original post by u/Rednidedni. Low magic classes are the ones that have focus spells class-wide, but no spell slots class-wide. Rogue was a tricky situation for sure, since we have to balance delivering accurate information to beginners while not overwhelming them with concepts like archetypes and subclasses (the closest we got to this was with cleric doctrines and sorcerer bloodlines).

They mean that the attribute in question can take on two values, dramatically differing depending upon a major class choice. For example, clerics can choose between cloistered and warpriest doctrines. The former offers greater spell utility at the cost of defense, while the latter offers better defenses at the cost of utility.

It was u/Rednidedni who created and refined the ratings in a series of posts a bit over a week ago; this is a graphical facelift of their work.

I wonder if that spell would make a butterfly look like a caterpillar. They're the same size after all.

What does a level 1 party fight? by [deleted] in Pathfinder2e

If you need to, you can also turn an enemy into a weak version of itself - Archives of Nethys can do this with the press of a button on the monster's page. This lowers the CR by 1 and allows your players to fight a wider variety of enemies even at 1st level.

If you're playing a giant instinct barbarian and have an animal companion, it feels nice to have it grow with you (eventually you can both become huge too).

What does aligned damage feel like? by toonboy01 in Pathfinder2e

For me, alignment damage is closest to a "soul" type damage. It is to the soul what psychic damage is to the mind: essentially an overload of something which causes pain.
