Pathfinder 2nd-edition Comparison of Classes

This chart works by assuming you are trained in everything at 1st level, then lists the levels of the increases.
For example, Alchemists have Class DC 9, 17: they are Trained at 1st, Expert at 9th, Master at 17th level.

Legendary proficiencies are bold. HP and skills are ranked from best to worst. Having Con/Int as a Key Stat increases the ranking by a step.
