Ok, so I saw that there were posts about Arcane Admixture not listing powers that were retrained into via MC talents, PMC path, etc.  I guess this question is related, but also a little different.  The description for Arcane Admixture says that at each level, you can choose a new power to apply the feat to.  I would expect this to show up somewhere in the retraining tab.  However, when I am unable to find this anywhere, and deselecting the chosen power under the class tab only allows me to choose from powers that I had at the level I took the feat at.  Is this intentional (as in, the ruling on the reassignment allowed by the feat is that it is limited to the powers you had at the time), or just another limitation of the CB?  Or is there a way to change your selection that I'm not aware of?  I'd like to be able to select a new power for the feat to apply to before I replace it with a higher level power, so that it updates my power cards in the character sheet.

I think that may be a general issue in regard to other feats with retrainable options, such as Arcane Familiar.  The only options you are given are the ones available when you first took the feat, and the Retraining tab does not give you the opportunity to retrain one of these feats for itself so that you can change to a different option or set of options.  If you could retrain such feats to themselves, the rest should fall into place.


Of course, that may be a tricky thing to do.  One way I have found to reliably crash the Character Builder is to retrain a power swap feat to Multiclass Mastery, take the same power swap feat as one of the multiclass feats from the new feat, and then attempt to actually replace a power using the feat you just swapped out and back in.  Wizards probably needs to fix that bug before they will be able to make other such swaps work.
