When a totem barbarian gets additional choices for spirit totems can they choose from a lower level totem? For example if they took the bear totem at level 3 when they gain enough levels to choose a new ability can they take the level 3 wolf totem as the new option?

The text is not worded to allow such an option.

 

I would not allow a player to do that as a DM because the level 3 options are "combat pillar" features, and the level 6 options are "exploration pillar" features, and the design of the game specifically makes sure that each class gets features across all the pillars - I wouldn't want the players undoing that by trading "exploration" options for "combat" features.

Thanks, I thought it was written that way as well, but I wanted to be sure I didn't miss something in my reading.
