There are other classes that allow you to gain new proficiencies as a class features at a later level as determined by class level. Warlock, bard, barbarian, and cleric all get them, they do not state that character level supersedes class level when gaining the proficiencies.The multiclassing section specifically explains how to handle proficiencies listed under Proficiencies, which is a separate section of class features. Nowhere does it imply that Proficiencies gained under archetypes are affected by Proficiencies section of Class features. Archetypes are a different section handled by different rules.Lore Bard gains new skill proficiencies at 3rd level. It doesn't specify 3rd level bard. It just states "When you join the College of Lore at 3rd level,..." Are we to start assuming they mean character level versus class level for all archetypes? Or this is just for the Life Cleric? There is nothing in the Life Domain to indicate that they are using character level over class level. You only gain a domain when you take a cleric level at 1st level. It is pretty clear that they mean 1st level cleric (class level) since that is the only time you can choose a domain.I can agree that rule isn't very well thought out. I agree that it doesn't make sense. I encourage you to change it to suit your preferred worldview. What I don't agree with is that you have any rules support. I don't think an official response will support your viewpoint. That shouldn't stop you from changing the rule to your preference.</blockquote>
