Message: <blockquote data-quote="RUMBLETiGER" data-source="post: 5734958" data-attributes="member: 6674868">Welcome!  I like what you are trying to build, and I like that you're willing to engage in the lengthy dialogue that it takes to design what you want.  These people will help you, it's just going to feel like going thru a meat grinder.  The final product, if you stick with us, will be crafting the feel of what you're looking for, but it may actually look much different then what you expect.One of the things that I know these fine gentlemen are trying to communicate to you is the possible problem with multiclassing.  When you take two or more classes, you lack the full power of either.  20 levels of Crusader makes you be an awesome Crusader.  18 Levels Crusader, 2 Levels Sorcerer makes you still a really good Crusader, but a useless Sorcerer against level 20 monsters.  10 levels Crusader, 10 levels Sorcerer makes you pretty weak against any level 20 monsters, because you've got a variety of level 10 abilities.  You end up sucky at everything.To multiclass well, you need to be very intentional about class/ability/stat/gear/spell combos that synergize well.  It can be done, but it requires a thorough understanding of the rules.  Also, it's nearly impossible* to be Great at many, many things. To be a sword and shield melee attacker, ranged attacker, damage absorber, ally protector, ranged spell slinger.... and be not-sucky at all of these things, requires not only a thorough understanding of combat, spell and stat rules, but also knowledge of the wide variety of class and prestige classes out there that can do the things you'd like to do, and will mix together well.*can be done, but takes alot of knowledge and creativity, which this group of people have access to!</blockquote>
