Preamble
Okay, so I see a lot of people cheating with their caster level in various ways. This thread uses their folly for humorous effect.

Is it a troll? Yes.

Does that change the fact that people are calculating CL incorrectly? No.

Real way to get caster level over 1000
Bloodline3/ArcaneDip16/KnightOfTheWeave1
Major Bloodline +3 class levels of everything
MasterSpellthief->CL 68 in all
miscellaneous CL boosts (ioun stone etc) +x

Final Caster Level = (68+x)*17+4 = 1160 + 17x

This one, sadly is RAW. Also total garbage other than the beastly CL. I might make a playable MasterSpellthief/Bloodline/DipDipDip/KnightOfTheWeave build later.

correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't Abj. Cham only give you BaB = Caster level in 1 chosen arcane class?

Yes, but Sublime Chord makes your CL for all classes the same, IIRC. So if you apply Abj. Champ. to SC, you get BAB = CL for all classes.

AFAIK, you can't "buy off" bloodlines. They're not the same as LA.

Quite right on both counts.
