First things first:
"The tumor has all the abilities of the animal it resembles and familiar abilities based on the alchemist’s caster level..." (UM)
So I'm starting a game with an Investigator(ACG) and 2 levels of alchemist for the purpose of having a tumor familiar while not sacrificing any spell(extract) progression. The thing is, since the alchemist class was the ONLY "alchemy" using class at the time of UM release there is no specific writing stating that an Investigator's alchemy levels stacks with that of an alchemist for certain things. In this case, I think alchemy levels should stack for the purpose of tumor familiar levels and abilities.
Personally, I consider anything in the alchemist class that refers to "alchemist class as caster level..." should also transfer to investigator seeing as the class uses the exact same type of magic.
Thoughts/opinions?
