I've a simple question regarding the interactions of two Archetypes, the Gifted Blade (a soulknife archetype) and the Purifier (a paladin archetype).
Purifiers, among other things, have this:
Manifesting: At 4th level, the purifier gains manifesting as a gifted blade of one level lower. This replaces spells.
Now, my question is this: Do they stack, and if so, how?
That is to say, for example, someone had a character that was a Purifier 4/Gifted Blade 3, would they have manifesting as:
A 4th level gifted blade: They stack, and since both are the 1st level of gifted blade manifesting they stack to 2.
A 3rd level gifted blade and a 3rd level gifted blade: They don't stack, which at later levels means they have power points but at this point they only get the bonus power points.
or
A 6th level gifted blade: The logic being they stack as gifted blade levels for the purposes of manifesting.
For a 20th level character, split evenly, a Purifier 10/Gifted Blade 10 would have manifesting as either a gifted blade 15, gifted blade 9 and gifted blade 10, or gifted blade 19.
