[QUOTE="mneme, post: 5579283, member: 59248"] In 4e, the most a player can "abandon their starting class and go into a new class" by the rules is to take all three multiclass feats, paragon multiclass to get an at will of the new class, and in epic, take an epic destiny that finally lets them retrain other class powers out (thus having more than 6 powers from the "new" class). However, if you allow rebuilds, you can get a much more nuanced shift. You don't mostly get much from level ups that's level dependant except for your powers (aside from essential classes). So for the first few "levels" of multiclassing, taking a multi feat, then a few other multi feats when you level into them (or retrain) works fine. If the player then wants to shift to a 50/50 approach (or rather, base features + whatever mix they want of powers) they can rebuild into a hybrid -- which will give them weaker base powers from both classes and let them (nearly) take powers freely from both classes. Finally, if they want to shift even further, you could let them rebuild to be a cleric multiclassing to Fighter. [/QUOTE]
