Arcanists cannot cast their spells normally, instead, they must convert them into rituals stored in a spellbook. Any known ritual can be cast without preparing it ahead of time as long as I have access to my spellbook, spells come from the Sorcerer/Wizard list plus the Healing domain.
Casting time is ten minutes / spell level (minimum 1 minute for 0-level spells), and duration x 1.5. If the spell’s casting time is normally more than one full round, add that time to the total casting time of the ritual. Verbal, Somatic, and Material components and focuses are as normal for the spell. At the conclusion of the ritual, the spell is cast normally. Metamagic feats may be applied during casting, change casting time to accommodate the adjusted level.
Can spend $125 per spell level to reduce the casting time to 1 minute / spell level (or 1 round / spell level to replace a released ritual with the same ritual).

Special:
Item Creation (Su): A dedicated wright can perform the daily tasks related to item creation on behalf of its master. The master must meet (or emulate) all the prerequisites to create the desired item normally, and pays the gold and XP cost himself. The only cost a dedicated wright can help with is time. The master spends 1 hour initiating the process, channeling spell prerequisites into the dedicated wright, and paying the XP cost to make the item. He may then leave, allowing the wright to carry the process through to completion.
Alertness (Ex): While a familiar is within arm’s reach, the master gains the Alertness feat.
Improved Evasion (Ex)
Share Spells: At the master’s option, he may have any spell (but not any spell-like ability) he casts on himself also affect his familiar. The familiar must be within 5 feet at the time of casting to receive the benefit.
If the spell or effect has a duration other than instantaneous, it stops affecting the familiar if it moves farther than 5 feet away and will not affect the familiar again even if it returns to the master before the duration expires. Additionally, the master may cast a spell with a target of "You" on his familiar (as a touch range spell) instead of on himself.
A master and his familiar can share spells even if the spells normally do not affect creatures of the familiar’s type (magical beast).
Empathic Link (Su): The master has an empathic link with his familiar out to a distance of up to 1 mile. The master cannot see through the familiar’s eyes, but they can communicate empathically. Because of the limited nature of the link, only general emotional content can be communicated.
Because of this empathic link, the master has the same connection to an item or place that his familiar does.
Deliver Touch Spells (Su): If the master and the familiar are in contact at the time the master casts a touch spell, he can designate his familiar as the "toucher." The familiar can then deliver the touch spell just as the master could. As usual, if the master casts another spell before the touch is delivered, the touch spell dissipates.
Speak with Master (Ex): If the master is 5th level or higher, a familiar and the master can communicate verbally as if they were using a common language. Other creatures do not understand the communication without magical help.
