Eldritch heritage

[Trisagon]

I have a question on taking eldritch heritage with abyssal bloodline: do I get strenght bonus at lvl 9, 13 and 17 or at lvl 11, 15 and 19?

11, 15, 19. Those are at your Sorcerer level, and EH gives you a Sorcerer level of HD-2 so you're set back by 2 levels.

Sort of, if you take Greater Eldritch Heritage then it brings your level up to full, so if you take it at 17 (the soonest you can take it) then you will get the final stat bonus then.

Greater Eldritch Heritage wrote:

You gain an additional power from the bloodline you selected with the Eldritch Heritage feat. You gain a 15th-level (or lower) sorcerer bloodline power that you do not already have. For purposes of using that power, treat your character level as your sorcerer level for all your sorcerer bloodline powers granted by this feat, Eldritch Heritage, and Improved Eldritch Heritage.

You never gain the Str bonus. All you get is the Claws power, and that is at character level -2.

At 11th level you can take Improved Eldritch Heritage and select Strength of the Abyss power. That is also at character level -2, so you would gain the Str bonus as follows: +2 11th level, +4 at 15th level, and +6 at 19th level.

At 17th level you could take Greater Eldritch Heritage and take another power. Also since your effective sorcerer level is now your character level for all eldritch heritage feats you would get the +6 bonus to Str at 17th level.
