[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 4269274, member: 5143"] Aha, we finally have the issue brought up in the wild. I've been looking for a good answer to this. So far, from a direct reading of the rules this appears to be how it works: 1) You get 2(or 3 with the feat) daily spells whenever you'd gain a daily spell 2) At level 15, you don't gain a daily spell, you instead are given the chance to retrain an old spell for a 15th level one 3) When you retrain, you remove the old spell from your spellbook 4) You can prepare a number of spells equal to the standard number you can cast per day. You can't prepare the same spell twice. Which leaves us with some questions: 1) When you get the ability to swap a lower level spell for a higher level one, does that allow(or require) you swap ALL of your spells at that level for an equal amount of the new level? 2) How many spells can you cast per day? Nowhere in the book does it specify this. The book lists how many spells you can KNOW many times, but never how many you can USE per day. 3) If we assume the number of dailies known in the table on page 29 is also supposed to be the number of spells you can use per day, then is there any restriction on only preparing one of a particular level? If you know 3 15th level dailies at level 15, can you prepare all of your spells as 15th level powers? 4) If you are only able to swap ONE power at 15th level, and it vanishes from your book, does this now become a level that you gain new powers in, thereby triggering your ability to get more than one daily? This would mean that at 15th level, if you had Expanded Spellbook, that you would be trading 1 1st level power for 3 15th level powers. [/QUOTE]
