Hi folks, I have a question.

Say Feat taken at 3rd is a prerequisite for a feat taken at 5th. I would like to have a different feat in the 3rd level slot, but that would mess up the 5th level slot. An added complication is that I still want the feat from 3rd and would like to have it in the 5th level slot instead.

By the retraining rules the only way to do this would be:

Retrain level 5 feat (to anything legal.)
Retrain level 3 feat (to what I want.)
Retrain level 5 feat (to what I want.)

Total time 3 retrains. 12 TU's + x gold.

Is that correct?

And 3 levels, as you can only do one "retraining" each time you level.

This MIGHT work ...

1. next level
Retrain level 3 feat (to what I want.)
.. level 5 feat no longer works and is useless

2. level after that
Retrain level 5 feat (to what I want.)


this might be a situation to ask Britt about

Rerednaw, you are right that it is going to take three different times retraining (And thus 3 levels) to get the feats you want.

You can't retrain prerequisites. So you're a little stuck.

Unless you just retrain the fifth level feat to the one that you want in the third level slot. Although I get the feeling that there is something that I am missing.

I'm pretty sure that's covered in the retraining rules in the PH2, as you have to make legal choices. Without the pre-reg. feat, you could not have taken the 5th level feat at all (thus it's not 'legal')..so it would take 3 retrains ( and 3 levels, since only one retrain per level)

How many different rules items can one retrain when they level?

Can one retrain a feat and a class feature, or would they have to choose between either a feat or a class feature?

One retrain per level. feat and class feature are two retrains...gotta choose.
