[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 5524781, member: 82106"] Right. There are no prerequisites causing any issues with this feat. HOWEVER there is a rather little-understood characteristic of multi-classing. You are considered a member of the multi-class FOR THE PURPOSE OF PREREQUISITES, but not for any other purpose. This means if you are MCed into class X you can take a feat that has a prereq like "must be a member of class X", but requirements that are stated in the TEXT of the feat aren't prereqs and you don't count as a member of the multi-class for those purposes. Thus you are not a member of the multi-class for purposes of which powers you can swap in. Thus a fighter/wizard cannot use Reserve Maneuver to swap in a wizard power because for purposes of reading the text of the feat he's a fighter, not a wizard. Beyond that the design of MCing doesn't really seem to fit with swapping to get powers from the second class, which you normally have to spend feats to do at all. Honestly, allow it if you don't have an issue with it, but I think RAW doesn't support it. [/QUOTE]
