Usually when you Swap out a power, You swap out all versions of that power.
So slow fall and slow fall 30' are the same power.
But Weapon Training 1 and weapon Training 2 are not (since the power of weapon training 2 is not affected by 1, just the level you get it at)
Really i like the Qigon monk its just that wierd lvl 8 power gap i cannot figure out.
What about this little quip?
If an archetype replaces a class feature that is part of a series of improvements or additions to a base ability (such as a fighter’s weapon training or a ranger’s favored enemy), the next time the character would gain that ability, it counts as the lower-level ability that was replaced by the archetype. In effect, all abilities in that series are delayed until the next time the class improves that ability. For example, if an archetype replaces a rogue’s +2d6 sneak attack bonus at 3rd level, when she reaches 5th level and gains a sneak attack bonus, her sneak attack doesn’t jump from +1d6 to +3d6—it improves to +2d6, just as if she had finally gained the increase at 3rd level. This adjustment continues for every level at which her sneak attack would improve, until at 19th level she has +9d6 instead of the +10d6 of a standard rogue.
