[QUOTE="Henry, post: 3843560, member: 158"] I think it could be justified story-wise - the Fighter 4 / Wiz 4 is essentially both a Ftr 6 and a Wiz 6, because they have the kind of breadth of experience that an 8th level character would receive. I have no idea how it really works, but think of it as "depth" of training, rather than "breadth." Imagine if (like star wars) the Ftr 4 could pick up only two martial "powers", and only two arcane "powers." They haven't mastered both breadth and depth like a Ftr 8 or a Wiz 8, so they plumb the limited mysteries they are exposed to as hard as they can, which grants them a little more insight than what someone who had only been in the business for four character levels could. That F8/W8 has been to the Temple of Whozis and seen its writings, or has been bathed in the energies of a Chaos Beast's evil spells, and has watched the wizard dispel dozens of enemy wizards' spells. For any or all together of those reasons, he can pick up a little bit more than that 4 levels of training would have allowed a single-classed bu lower-level adventurer. [/QUOTE]
