Oracle Bonus Spells Question

[Harrison]

I'm a little confused on exactly when Oracles get the bonus spells from their Mystery IF you choose to multiclass.

I currently have a Life Oracle that's going to take levels in the Holy Vindicator Prestige Class come 8th level and I wanna know how this will affect me obtaining the Oracle's Bonus Spells.

According to the text beneath the Mystery section, it just says "At 2nd level, and every two levels thereafter", but I don't know if that means every 2 character levels, every two Caster levels, or every two Oracle levels.

Oracle levels only.

Even if you take a prestige class that increases your oracle spellcasting, you don't get bonus spells from the oracle's class feature.

You will loose bnus spells, you will not get increase in mysteries, and your Curse will slow down on its progression....

Don't do it.

On the other hand, he basically gets half his level to his AC, half his HV level to attack and damage, a couple free feats, free metamagic on cures, and some other goodies that easily make up for the few worthwhile mysteries on which a Life Oracle will miss out.
