Arcanist - Eldritch Heritage Arcane Bond


Rules Questions

Scarab Sages

I know it is a bit early for the advanced class guide questions, but here is one anyways. Assuming you take an item for a bond, would I be correct in assuming that this would only allow you to cast a spell you currently know, not one from your spell book, right?

Eldritch Heritage states: Select one sorcerer bloodline. You must have Skill focus in the class skill that bloodline grants to a sorcerer at 1st level (for example, Heal for the celestial bloodline). This bloodline cannot be a bloodline you already have. You gain the first-level bloodline power for the selected bloodline. For purposes of using that power, treat your sorcerer level as equal to your character level – 2, even if you have levels in sorcerer. You do not gain any of the other bloodline abilities.

So if the Arcane Bloodline was taken, it would give my player this: At 1st level, you gain an arcane bond, as a wizard equal to your sorcerer level. Your sorcerer levels stack with any wizard levels you possess when determining the powers of your familiar or bonded object. Once per day, your bonded item allows you to cast any one of your spells known (unlike a wizard’s bonded item, which allows him to cast any one spell in his spellbook). This ability does not allow you to have both a familiar and a bonded item.

What people will do to give this class an arcane bond.
