[QUOTE="Cheiromancer, post: 2460144, member: 141"] Gez and I talked about using Gestalt levels to solve the "multige" problem (prestige classes that effectively multiclass the character; like Mystic Theurge or Eldritch Knight). We didn't mess with the level/xp table though. What we did was allow characters with levels of base classes to add a gestalt level every now and again. The version I like best is the gestalt-5 variant: So a rogue2/barbarian 3 could take a level of gestalt rogue-barbarian, then alternate base levels with gestalt levels. Maybe it's because I'm familiar with this system, and unfamiliar with yours, but it seems clearer. I can't really figure out how to apply rules 2 and 3 of your variant in game play (and 2a and 3a). How do players know when to level up their characters? What is the step by step procedure they follow? Are xp points lost when you pay for class features? A step by step example with the rogue would be nice. [/QUOTE]
