I realize that this board is about a year old, but I need some clarification, and this is the only place I have seen anyone asking anything close to the question I'm trying to figure out.
So if I'm playing a Bard(archivist)5 and begin taking levels of Pathfinder Chronicler, when I reach Chronicler level 3 and gain the Bardic Performance ability my effective Bard level will be 6.
Does that then mean I will gain the "Lamentable Belaborment" bardic performance type that I would get as a 6th level Archivist?
I'm assuming yes, but I have seen things that made me question it, and would like a clearer answer.
