[QUOTE="Phloid, post: 4196485, member: 56261"] Ugh. Although there is an overwhelmingly positive bent on these boards toward 4th Edition and I will likely be flamed or at least contested I have to take the negative side of this. These multiclassing rules are not what I want. They look like solid rules for dabbling in another class, but they are not "Multi-Classing." In 4th Ed are you going to refer to your wizard with the Sneak of Shadows feat as a "Wizard/Rogue?" You might, but new players to the game won't unless the PH says to call it that. Even then, the name still won't fit. To me it is a wizard with sneak attack. Not a multiclass wizard/rogue. Can I get a 50%/50% class split with these rules? It doesn't seem like it. And only one other class? Bah! Am also annoyed that I have to give up multiple feats in order to "multiclass." I want my feats for other things. I'm well aware that multiclassing rules in the previous editions were not good, but neither is this. They should work, but they are not "multiclassing." It is "class dabbling." I'm just more discouraged every time they reveal something about the game. I'll read the PH and play a game or two before I pass final judgment but it looks bad in my eyes, and keeps getting worse.
