[QUOTE="Mal Malenkirk, post: 4245701, member: 834"] You gain options unavailable to your class which translate to powers. You have to balance the acquisition of a mutli-class power with the knowledge that the players is going to maximize synergy with his current class. Sure, if a fighter takes sly flourish, he hasn't gained enough to justify the cost of a feat. [I]Especially[/I] if the sum of his cha and dex bonus are less than his str! But you have to assume that the player will choose something that complement his abilities and balance accordingly. A rogue learning powers that give him sneak attack opportunity, for example. Or a defender learning cleric power that can heal him. Or a wizard learning a rogue power to get out of a tight spot. And finally, there is the case of a PC learning a bit of powers from a class not reprented in the party so that he can become a bit of a MVP. If there are no warlord in the team, a fighter multiclassing and picking up a few warlord abilities is going to shine often indeed. [/QUOTE]
