[PFS] Does the `Street Performer` Bard Archtype from APG earn double for Day Jobs?


Pathfinder Society

1/5

The Street Performer Bard archtype has an ability called

Gladhanding:
A street performer earns double the normal amount of money from Perform checks. As a standard action, he may use a Bluff check in place of a Diplomacy check to improve a creature’s attitude for 1 minute, after which its attitude becomes one step worse than originally.

This ability replaces countersong.

Does this mean that they, if they use a Perform skill for their Day Job, gain double the amount?

So, I hate to be a stickler, but Mike answered this question about a month ago and said that it did add gold. Can we get one unified answer here?

I don't think I've personally encountered anyone using Gladhandling, so it's not that big of a deal for me personally, but trying to get one coherent answer.

actually, my Street Performer uses it. When the judge allows it. YMMV.

Ok, now I'm mixed up.

Now that a link to this has been added to Jiggys "Collected Messageboard Clarifications of PFS " as "The street performer bard ability does not apply to day job checks" and we have Mike saying one thing and Mark saying the other, and the note "Answered in the errata" which is it? In what errata?

can someone point me to the final word on this. Does Gladhandling double Street Performers day job rolls or not?

I'm going to FAQ it. Yes, Gladhanding does double a Street Performer's day job roll.
