02-13-07, 06:37 PM Dispel Confusion Vol. 3 No. 2 says a favor that grants access to "any Limited" (spell, feat, etc.) is void unless it has errata. Let's say my PC got a favor that allowed any Limited feat.

-- If a PC used the favor already, and it doesn't have errata, does he have to undo it and replace the feat with a different (non-favor) one? If the answer is "yes", does it matter how long ago he used the favor?

-- If a PC used the favor already, and it does have errata, and the feat he gained is not allowed by the errata, does he have to undo it and replace it with a different feat? If the answer is "yes", does he have to replace it with a feat allowed by the errata, or could he replace it with an Open feat?

-- If a PC has to replace the feat he took with such a favor, are there any circumstances under which he could replace it with a feat he gained access to after he got the favor?

02-14-07, 10:49 AM Britt, are you going to answer the original questions? :-) Or were they already answered elsewhere?

02-14-07, 12:06 PM The first question was answered by Britt in the Dispel Confusion thread. The answer was No, you do not have to re-pick a feat if you used the favor already and there is no errata.

I believe the answer to the second question is yes, you do have to replace the feat if the errata does not give access to it. It would seem logical that you could replace the feat with an open feat - I don't think you would be compelled to use a feat from the errata favor.

The answer to 3 seems likely to be no. But, there does not appear to be any official word on this.
