The d20pfsrd section of the Swashbuckler dealing with panache/luck synergy reads as follows:
/Quote: Grit, luck, and panache represent three different means by which heroes can gain access to the same heroic pool, using it to accomplish fantastic feats. For characters with a mix of grit, luck, and panache, they pool the resources together into a combined pool. (Those who use panache and luck gain twice their Charisma bonus in their pool.) For feats, magic items, and other effects, a panache user can spend and gain luck points in place of grit or panache points, and vice versa.
A luck user does not count as a grit or panache user to satisfy feat prerequisites. Unquote/
Assuming that I have a Swashbuckler who dips a level of Archaeologist Bard and the character has a 16 Charisma (+3) how many points would the character have in the combined panache/luck pool?
Thanks for your answers!!

That certainly makes that dip a lot less appealing. Although since the panache pool and number of rounds of performance is calculated off of charisma, it does have some synergy. And with lingering performance and the fate's favored trait, it may still be worth it, as the character still will not be overly MAD (dex and charisma are most important) and one can have the luck bonus going almost always unless combat for any given day goes well beyond 21 rounds.
Thanks everyone.
