[QUOTE="Zathris, post: 6786618, member: 6687148"] Here is my reason behind "Don't ever PMC*" Why aren't you Hybrid? Hybrid+MC gives you 3 classes worth of PPs. On the chance the e11 sucks, Resman exists and you're still 1 feat up on PMC (the other feat presumed to be HT). This leaves 2 Hybrid Features + PP Features + U12 and D20 competing with 1 Pure Features + U16 and D19 + PMC Feat option. In many cases the next question is: Why aren't you just that other class? In the end the viability of PMC is not really reliant on how strong the class you're PMCing is, but how weak the base class is. PMC requires Features strong enough to stay pure-class of that class, but weak enough power options (I guess you could just burn the MC feats and not swap, but that makes an even bigger gap) AND PPs (even if you MC) and having another class that matches Stats + Accessory ... that's not a long list. I can mostly see it for a couple Strikers, maybe Shaman, and the Augmenting classes. [/QUOTE]
