New Spell Vs Old Spell for Sharing Teamwork Feats


Advice


Looking at the spell Coordinated Effort from the APG, it's generally 3rd level for only a handful of casters. It shares one TW feat to 1 creature per three levels. For them to benefit from it, they must be teaming with you. It lasts 1 min/level.

The new spell Shared Training from Blood of the Ancients seems to absolutely overpower Coordinated Effort; it's 10 min/level, can share up to 4 TW feats by CL 17th, has the same range, casting time, and components. It also affects 1 creature per 3 levels. Affected creatures do not need to meet the feat pre-requisites, and do not need to involve you in the teaming to gain a benefit. Way more casters get it, and at a lower level. The only difference I can find is that Shared Training is called out as mind-affecting, and Coordinated Effort is not. Is that a big deal?

It looks like shared training is a level lower, 10x the duration, shares 4x the feats, and without restrictions on usage or per-requisites. I found this on Archives of Nethys, so it's possible I am missing some fluff text that restricts access; is that what's happening?


It also seems to be more widely available. Coordinated Effort is limited to bards, inquisitors and the co-op domain. Where as Shared Training seems to be available to everyone but druids.

Maybe Paizo finally figured out what a pain in the butt teamwork feats are and eased up a bit?
