This section presents new feats for animal companions and familiars, as well as for PCs that make use of these animals.Some feats might be available to other creatures that meet the prerequisites. Feats that are meant for familiars can be
switched out for a familiar’s default feats (as listed in the familiar’s statistics) if the familiar meets the prerequisites. Such
feat replacements must be made when the PC first acquires a new familiar, and—like all new feats from supplemental sources—the new feats should be approved by the GM before being integrated into play.
So going by this quote you couldn't take any feat a familiar qualifies for but only feats meant for familiars. So if you want Paired Opportunist on your Familiar you need either Valet or the Eldritch guardian.
Gotchya. You sure that's from the Animal Archive and not the Familiar Folio? I'll have to get my book out when I get home (assuming I have time before tonight's PFS game) and read that section.
Copy Pasted from the PDF which I do own so myself.
Here's another possible build which builds on utilizing a Small valet Familiar to get the combo going. It also has Tactician once a day to share the love with the team. It goes straight into Ulfen Guard at level 6 to collect Rage Powers and other goodies most notably the the Ulfen Guards 6th level ability which is a well hidden virtual pounce mechanism. Not that this build really needed that but it's an option. In case you were wondering just assign your guarded dedication to your familiar and then let your familiar move and follow it with an immediate action. Oh yeah you and bonus points for being Lagertha :)

Moving out of more than one square threatened by the same opponent in the same round doesn't count as more than one opportunity for that opponent.
So I was always under the impression that the rule above applied to individual move action but the wording above might imply that Chainslam Sue's trick doesn't work afterall.
Then again it might also be a case of the specific (Greater Bull Rush) overriding a general rule. Any of you smart folks have an opinion on the matter?

Each bull rush is a separate opportunity. All movement from a single bull rush is a single opportunity, but applies across the entire movement path.

This is the avatar for my planned PFS character. I want to make her an angry Ulfen Princess. And while she likely won't be a very tame person I think I'm gonna have to build her a bit more tame than what I've proposed here (particularly Chainslam Sue seems like she shouldn't be played in a real game).
For now I'll prolly start with a level of Ranger (Favored Enemy: Human) cause she doesn't like people and I'll have to finalize the build once I reach level 2. I'd love to move into the Ulfen Guard PrC for flavor and because it stacks Bloodrager and Ulfen guard levels to determine effect of rage powers alowing you to get the best of both worlds.
