[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 6168746, member: 1465"] That's also how I understand it. Basicall your level in each class determines which spells (and spell levels) you know and how many you prepare every day. Your total level in all your spellcasting classes determines the number of daily slots. However there are two oddities with this: - first of all, different classes have different number of slots... which progression do you use, the best one? or will they change it so that clerics, druids, mages have the same number of slots at every level? how about lesser casters such as paladins, rangers, bards? - second, if each class individually determines how many spells you prepare, this is actually the same for all classes i.e. 1+level, so for someone with 2 spellcasting classes it will end up being 2+level, except that presumably these don't merge but you prepare separately 1+level_in_first_class and 1+level_in_second_class from the 2 class lists This is a bit odd mathematically... it would seem so much easier to prepare a number of spells based on your total level (since it's only anyway a difference of 1). Instead, with daily slots making the combination is tricky... but clearly this approach is chosen so that you still get higher level slots, even tho you have to fill them with augmented lower level spells. --- Example: let's say I wanna play Gandalf and I choose half Mage / half Paladin. Let's see what happens at 6th level. I prepare 4 Mage spells (as a Mage 3) and 2 Paladin spells (as a Paladin 3) every day, and I know up to 2nd level Mage spells and 1st level Paladin spells. If I were a Mage 6, I would have 4 first level slots + 3 second level slots + 3 third level slots. If I were a Paladin 6, I would have 3 first level slots + 1 second level slot. How many slots do I have as a Mage 3 / Paladin 3? :) [/QUOTE]
