Hi all,

Quick request for clarification. Can the Sanctified Slayer Inquisitor archetype take the feat Extra Slayer Talent?

The relevant feats and class abilities are:

Sanctified Slayer wrote:

Talented Slayer (Ex)

At 8th, 16th, 17th, and 20th levels, a sanctified slayer can gain a single slayer talent, including those from the list of rogue talents that a slayer can take, but not an advanced slayer talent.

This ability replaces second judgment, third judgment, slayer, and true judgment.

Extra Slayer Talent wrote:

Through long practice, you have learned how to perform a special talent.

Prerequisite: Slayer talent class feature.

Benefits

You gain one additional slayer talent. You must meet the prerequisites for this slayer talent.

Special:

You can take this feat multiple times. Each time you do, you gain another slayer talent.

The issue is that the Sanctified Slayer doesn't, technically, have the "Slayer talent class feature", as they have the "Talented Slayer" class feature.

Can I have this clarified? It seems logical to me that any ability that grants unfettered access to slayer talents should count as the slayer talent class feature.


Quick note. The ACG says, in regard to re-naming class features:

ACG, page 74 wrote:

On the other hand, any alternate class features listed as

altering an existing class feature otherwise works as that
original class feature, and is considered to be that class
feature for purposes of meeting any requirements or
prerequisites, even if that feature is renamed to fit a new
theme. For example, a class feature that alters the bard’s
bardic performance still counts a bardic performance for
any prerequisite that requires that ability.

This doesn't answer it, since it's technically different, but it certainly seems to imply that it would work (at least, that's my reading).


After 8th level you can.

When you cant, it is explicit, like primitive bloodrager explicit saying that the rage powers dont count as rage powers for purpose of feats and other pre requisites.

This. Look how the primalist blood rager have a special rule saying that they cannot Pick extra rage power.
