[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 7848900, member: 6704184"] I’m being pretty literal, as well, and coming to the opposite conclusion. RAW it changes how Spellcasting works, and specifies that the spell being replaced must come from the specific feature named Spellcasting that is being changed by Spell Versatility. Yeah they could have just said “must be a spell gained from the Bard Spellcasting feature” or something like that, to make it more immediately clear. In my own games I’ll probably allow any class to take the maneuver one as well, but I get why they didn’t allow it officially. Of course I already allow any class with Fighting styles to take any FS in print, so... I’d also really like to see a Fighter Fighting Style that gives them cantrips, if Ranger and Paladin are getting such things. Let my EK be magic from day one. yep. The feature is the feature named Spellcasting, and we can know that because the capitalization of Spellcasting makes it clear that it isn’t a general term, but instead a specific name of a feature, which only leaves the conclusion that it refers to “the specific Spellcasting feature that is being modified, ie the Bard, Warlock, etc, Spellcasting.” It’s clarifying that you can’t swap a Bard spell for a Warlock spell. It has to stay within the class, and it cannot even cross over spells that are Bard spells but come from other features. Yeah not sure why they went that route. It’s just weird with how the features are organized in the PHB. [/QUOTE]
