Quick question about the Bard 8 / Virtuoso 2 / Sublime Chord 2 / Virtuoso 8 combo.
As I understand it, the idea is that Virtuoso is intended to add spellcasting levels as follows:
1st - N/A
2nd - +1 Bard Spellcasting
3rd, etc. - +1 Sublime Chord
My question is, is this legal? The description says:
Spells per Day/Spells Known: Beginning at 2nd level, a virtuoso gains new spells per day (and spells known, if applicable) as if he had also gained a level in an arcane spellcasting class to which he belonged before adding the prestige class level. He does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained. If he had more than one arcane spellcasting class before becoming a virtuoso, he must decide to which class to add each level for the purpose of determining spells per day and spells known.
So, from the sounds of it, I can change which spellcasting class I add at each level, but technically, I haven't taken any levels of Sublime Chord before I take my first level of Virtuoso. So how would you guys interpret that?
