I am rethinking classes from the ground up on this. 1. The BASE class/Character levelsThe Base Class has the underlying math. BAB, Saves, Spell progression (if applicable), skills. Say, Warrior, Expert, Adept Warrior - Good BAB, good Fort Save, spells start at 4th level (if your occupational class has spells) and only go up to level 4. Low skillsExpert - Medium BAB, good reflex save, spells start at level 1 and only go up to level 6 (if applicable)Adept - Lousy BAB, good Will Save, spells go up to level 9 (if applicable) Base classes cannot be changed. 2. Occupational ClassesTraditional class features: Barbarian, Bard, Cleric, Druid, Fighter, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer, Wizard, etc. Occupational Classes is where the multiclassing can take place. So, say a Warrior base class takes 3 levels of fighter and 1 of wizard. No matter how many levels a warrior takes of wizard, a warrior could never cast any spell higher than level 4. He'd have a good BAB, though. Conversely, an Adept that had fighter 1, wizard 1, would have a terrible BAB, but still have fighter feats. Experts are better at blending spellcasters and melee. Multi-classing doesn't change the math - but it leaves open plenty of options open.</blockquote>
