Arachnos Widow Build Up & Follow Up

[Lusiphur Malache]

Decided to do a second build of my Night Widow, but go down the Fortunata path.  I thought I would be able to take both Build Up and Follow Up because I was a Fortunata, but game still considered me a Night Widow.  Conversely, it might be possible to do a second build on a Fortunata, build a Night Widow and take both.  My logic may be wrong, I don't have a Fortunata to test with.

They are set to disable each other like the Frag Grenade between the basic Wolf Spider and the Crab Spider if you go Crab Spider path.

Edit again: It also states that in the power description in the game.

 MIDs character builder makes this more obvious, but as Rudra said selecting any Night Widow power will lock you out of the Fortunata tree. 

 

Ah, to have Build Up + Follow Up + Slash + Placate on my Night Widow, but it will never happen.

It's not even Night Widow. Widow Training's Follow Up states it blocks out Build Up. So it isn't that having a Night Widow build prevents the player from making a Fortunata build. It is that specifically Build Up and Follow Up from the Arachnos Widow/Widow of Arachnos tree are mutually exclusive.
