Spontaneous Caster Dedication

If you take a spontaneous caster dedication, can you change the spells you have at each level when you level like a regular spontaneous caster?

Seems almost strictly worse than a prepared caster dedication if not.

Just to clarify, you can't change all the spells you have at each level as a regular sorcerer, or even some of them. Whenever you level up you can change one spell you previously added to your repertoire.

I would say a character with the sorcerer dedication should be able to change one spell they previously added to their repertoire, whenever they gain a level that allows them to add another spell to their sorcerer repertoire.

Yeah, didn’t mean all of them lol, just one a level. What if you are spont caster and have a spontaneous dedication? Can you change a spell from each one each level?


No.
The abilities of one class re: its Repertoire do not extend outside of that Repertoire. PF2 has been very clear about keeping abilities distinct for future-proofing against unexpected shenanigans.
And I disagree with allowing the MCD to change their spell list since the MCD does not grant such an ability. Though do note the errata that gives the caster a Signature Spell for each feat that advances the MCD's spell levels (so 3 in total, Breadth not being one of them).

ETA: You could Retrain the spells known instead.
