Had forgotten about SF umd, using it for the early levels definitely has appeal thanks for bringing it up. I dont have a cha skills shroud item yet, but, what do you think about holding onto it till 16 where I can start using my DT heal amp docent?

That should be fine. Per standard feat-swapping procedure: make sure the feat you intend to replace it with is one that you were eligible for at the level you took SF: UMD (which rules out Imp Crit, and I don't think the game will let you take Greater Spell Focus at 3 if your Spell Focus isn't until 6).

Another option:
1) Toughness
3) SF: UMD
6) Maximize
...

Same caveats as before, but this way you can "get away with" not taking Spell Focus if you want.

Good stuff thanks, I always forget about that feat swapping thing, it's burned me a few times.
