I have a question about the Divine Magician ACF and its interaction with certain prestige classes.
For those who are unaware, "some clerics choose to explore magical powers beyond those commonly provided by the gods" - You sacrifice one of your domains in exchange for the ability to cast some arcane spells, adding one Abj. Div. or Necro. spell from the Wiz/Sorc list to your spell list for each level of spell you can cast, like a domain.)
This clearly allows a Cleric to qualify for entry into many PrCs that have a prerequisite of being able to cast arcane spells of X level.
Specifically, I'm working on a Warlock / Divine Magician Cleric and I'd like to take the Eldritch Theurge once I'm out of levels in Eldritch Disciple. It looks like I qualify for it just fine and I think it would be pretty interesting. I was considering taking Alternate Source Spell to make some of my divine spells arcane as well and combining that with Spellblast. I'm sure there's some neat things you could do with that.
However, would the classes casting progression increase my Cleric casting? I would think yes, since it is the arcane caster that qualified me for the class, but I was hoping for other opinions on this (and just to share the idea -- I thought it sounded cool). Any thoughts?
