Changing SLA's & Feats of your Improved Familiar ... Doable?


Advice


I was wondering if any of you have any suggestions on legal-&-RAW methods of a wizard being able to change the Spell-Like Abilities and/or Feats of his Improved Familiar. I'm specifically looking at doing this to an Imp.

Feats used to be swappable for a Familiar by doing the Dark Chaos Shuffle back in 3.5. But the 2 spells needed for the combo did not transfer over to PF. Yes, I could hand-wave that by backporting them in ... but I'm looking for Paizo RAW solutions.

Excessive gold expenditure isn't an issue ... I'm looking for *RAW* means of doing this swapping/changing.

****

P.S. Please note! I'd be willing to entertain 3PP solutions to this process as well! Just please list the full source name of the product and as much other detail as you can. Thanks!


All closed content is legal and RAW for game usage, but cannot be published legally by Paizo (or anybody else). That's how the OGL works.
Just use the spells as they are unless you need to make a conversion to Pathfinder specifically.

Retraining should cover feats, but I can't offer anything on the SLAs.


Feats should be retrainable. The creature conceivably choose the feats in question before becoming a familiar, and could have made different choices.

For SLAs, no choice ever happened, and I think you're SOL.


Thanks, everybody. I'll use retraining to swap those 2 Imp feats for other feats.

On a related note, I did look at Dreamscarred Press' re-intrepretation and re-publishing of the 3.5 Psionic Power called Psychic Reformation. Located here:

Do you think their wording of "The subject can also choose to forget powers or spells it acquired when advancing to its current level, replacing them with new ones" ... applies to SLA's too?

Same issue again: The creature did not acquire SLAs by advancing in levels.
