Wildblooded / Crossblooded.

'one ability' abilities, are Bardic Performances and a Gunslinger's Deed classified as 'one ability' too for the purposes of archetypes?

I've always thought so (does block the Mysterious/Pistolero combo due to Deeds.)

I don't think it will stop the endless arguing over whether or not adding something to a Class Ability is "altering". I've been in threads debating the meaning of "alter" and whether or not adding additional choices count as altering.

If Wild/Crossblooded aren't allowed to stack, why is the Qinggong Monk allowed to stack with other archetypes, as explained in >>this<< FAQ?

Using that FAQ as a base...

A Sorcerer taking both Wildblooded(bedrock) and Crossblooded(Celestial) would be unable to replace Iron Hide with Wings of Heaven.

Qinnggong Monk is just a special exception, apparently. Without that explicit allowance in the FAQ, by the PDT's ruling that optional alterations are still alterations, Quiggong Monk would only stack with Sensei and Monk Vows.

They really should just make the wildblooded abilities like subdomains instead of archetypes.

With the same caveat that the Quingong monk has, if one is replaced, then it has already been "chosen" once and swapped out, so is not available to be gotten a 2nd time as an alternate Crossblooded option.
