So, I've been conceptualizing a paladin of the oath of charity, and with Merchant's Manifest out, there is now the Knight of Coins. RAW the archetypes stack, but I'm trying to figue out how Charitable Mercy from the oath of charity interacts with Blessing of Prosperity from knight of coins.

A paladin can't normally change their known mercies. A knight of coins can't normally change their known blessings. Blessings of Prosperity can be gained with Extra Mercy.

Oath of Charity lets you, at 5th, change your mercies each day, unlike a normal paladin. If I have both archetypes, can I exchange blessings?

Relatedly, do blessomgs of prosperity count as having a mercy for prerequisites? Because RAW, a knight of coins has to wait to get their first normal mercy at 6th to take extra mercy.


Blessing are not mercies, the only exception being that Extra Mercy can be used for a blessing (if you are a night of coins).

An oath of charity paladin can change their mercies, but not their blessings.

As far as prerequisites, once again blessings are not mercies. I would probably allow Extra Mercy to be an exception to this, but only when used to select a blessing, technically this isn't RAW, but I think the intent there is clear enough.
