One of my players wants to retrain one of his feats for the Vampiric Heritage feat. Is this legal in LFR (as soon as this dragon issue is compiled) ?

As it has been stated several times in several different threads, if the information is in the compiled version of the Dragon magazine it was presented in, then it is LFR legal. Barring it not being in the final Dragon or it being Banned in the next CCG, we will know when it goes final here soon.

Can I be a Gnoll? How about a Githyaanki? Can I buy items from Adventurer's Vault? Can I have the Wheloon background? What about other FR backgrounds? Can I take the backgrounds from Dragon?
Hmm... I should start on that FAQ.
Sorry WOTC, you lost me with Essentials. So where I used to buy every book that came out, now I will be very choosy about what I buy. Can we just get back to real 4e?

I still did not receive an answer to my question. I know about the dragon magazine use in LFR.
I want to know if the character can retrain a feat to use this feat since the article states that you should take it on 1st level and only can take it at later levels with DM's approval.
PS Can you really play warforged and gnolls ? :P

Stuff that appears in Dragon becomes LFR legal at the end of the month in which it was released (i.e. when the issue is compiled). So the Damphyr is not yet legal in LFR... check back at the end of the month...

A much trickier question... traditionally things that have "DM approval" are not allowed in LFR. However, in the past these things have been Artefacts and such-like... the Damphyr feat tree is something, not entirely new... but new for 4e.
It's a safe bet to say the feats will be legal if taken at lv.1 onward, I would even stick my neck out and say that retraining into Vampiric Heritage will be ok too, as it isn't really very powerful. But that hasn't been officially decided yet... wait until the end of the month.
Personally I am plannng to make a Damphyr... an Orc Battlerager Damphyr... but won't take Vampiric Heritage until level 8. So I hope that taking the feat after level 1 is allowed.

The quick and dirty answer is: yes, you can retrain into it. While the article says you should take it at first and only take it later with DM approval... there is no such prerequisite in the feat itself. That's a guideline in the article for story considerations but not a hard and fast rule.

That's very good news as my Paladin of Kelemvor just hit eighth so not only do I have an open feat slot but Kelemvor is a god of the dead. I can easily see many of his followers taking the feat path in an attempt to become more like their god. While yes Kelemvor hates all undead one can easily see him granting a small amount of undead powers to his faithful in an attempt to bring the fight to the door step of the enemy.
