You're right, and if I can get Archmage one level sooner... I'm not sure what you mean by retroactively putting skill ranks in Knowledge (Arcana).

Psychic Reformation allows reassignment of skill points as well as feats. So, at the same time as you're swapping out feats, you could, for example, move the 6 skill points you spent on Move Silently to Knowledge (Arcana). You could also take them away from your 8 points in Gather Information (both it and Move Silently are cross class, in case you're wondering why I'm saying 6 and 8 instead of 3 and 4), or one of your Knowledge skills.

By the way, douglas, it's creepy reading that post and thinking "hey, that's exactly what I thought I'd do..." And 300 XP is what, 1/3 of a random encounter?

There's not much room for flexibility in this if you want to both satisfy the Archmage prereqs asap and get bonuses to SR penetration, so it's not really surprising that we'd come up with the same set of swaps. 300 XP is indeed very close to 1/3 of a "typical" encounter at our level, though if you want to swap out all three feats it'll take 600 XP. One CR 14 monster's worth of XP divided among 5 party members gives 840 XP for 14th level characters.
