PFS-specific Re-training question: 10th level feat possible at 10th level?

[Magda Luckbender]

This is a PFS-specific question. Two questions, in truth.

First question: I'd like opinions on whether re-training is an option in this case. A certain 10th level Cleric on the slow experience track now qualifies for Divine Interference. The next available feat comes at 11th level. Is it PFS Legal and/or reasonable to re-train another feat to Divine Interference at 10th level?

Second question: If it is legal to re-train, is it better to trade in Toughness or Improved Initiative? This is for a melee-heavy reach cleric(Evangelist) who is a front line martial combatant and main T@n£. HP are currently 103 with DR5/Magic and Initiative is currently +7. Defenses are already quite good, so Divine Interference is primarily to protect the rest of the team. Thanks for your advice.

yes it is legal, yess you can get a lvl 10 feat at level 0.

And I'd definatly do it if you want to do say divine interference ANd angel wings or something like that.

I'd rather you trade in initiativethan toughness myself.

The answers are "Yes" and "Probably Improved Initiative" in that order.

To elaborate, retraining only cares if you fit the requirements for the feat at the moment you retrain, not when you first got the feat you're retraining. Note that this does mean you cannot retrain into feats that can only be taken at first level.
