How many spells do oracles get?

Hello guys,
I've been wondering that ever more so that pathbuilder seem to have backtracked and set the number of spell repertoire to the pre-remaster progression (2-3-...). I though i had the perfect test for the ruling on that by going to check on the pregenerated Oracle character (Korakai). I realized both positions might be wrong (or no one actually knows). The 1st level Korakai has 3 first rank spell in his repertoire (2 + 1 granted) that would seem to match the pre-remaster position. However the 5th level Korakai has 4 second rank spell in repertoire (4 + 0 granted) and 3 third rank spell in repertoire (3 + 0 granted) which seem to favor the other interpretation. This would seem to indicate granted spells take a spell repertoire space (which would be a worse case scenario given how bad those are) when learning spells as you rank up, but the overrall progression would be matching the slots (3-4-...).

My best guess is they forgot to errata all the references needed to change the repertoire spells and they made a mistake on the pre-generated character too ...

They made a mistake with the pregen indeed.

It has the 3-4 progression but instead treating the spells from the mystery as granted spells it follows the behavior of Sorcerer where the first spell you learn at each rank comes from the bloodline.

Korakai also has Cursebound on his focus spells still, which was a premaster Oracle thing that doesn't exist anymore. And yeah, as you learned Korakai's repertoire is acting as if he's a Sorcerer and doing something the Oracle text simply doesn't support at all.

I checked that to try and get an answer on this, but all I learned from it is that Paizo doesn't know how many spells Oracle learns either. ;)
