[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 4270448, member: 29014"] Multiclassing was my first level feat (as I mentioned earlier). I mostly took Warlock multiclass because the flavour fit and because it was strictly better than the choice I had settled on as my favourite of the regular feat list (Skill Training Bluff). Hmm, yes, Ethereal Stride is very nice (you actually buy Utility at 8th, not 4th though), but I can't help but feel Bastion of Health is going to be necessary--I'm a major heal monkey and I always run out of Word of Healing, and Bastion is basically one more of them per battle (except you can use Bastion and Word on the same round if necessary). The only other choice for removal would be Shield of Faith, and having a party buff that lasts all encounter seems useful, particularly since no one in the group has anything they use much that grants power bonuses to AC. Perhaps things will change by the time I hit level 8, but the utilities just seem too valuable to swap. Like, even if they gave me that option and it didn't cost a feat to do it, I'm not sure if I would. You know what I mean? Thank goodness it doesn't require Novice Power--that was a smart move on the designers' part, since often the utility will be much more immediately useful when multiclassing than an attack might. I can't find any viable choice for Novice Power. On the other hand, though I'm quite attached to my level 1 Daily and saw some sweet level 5 dailies, I dislike the level 9 Cleric dailies (though ironically I like Divine Power for the buff it provides me and the party enough to consider taking it and ignoring the part where it makes a worthless Strength attack) enough to consider swapping out for something that would amuse me like Summons of Khirad.
