[QUOTE="Scipio202, post: 4196556, member: 63152"] [b]Guessing at Paragon Level Multiclassing[/b] Given the structure of the Paragon Path benefits, perhaps we can guess how the paragon-level multiclassing works. For Paragon Paths you get 11th: Paragon Feature, Action Point option, Paragon Encounter Power 12th: Paragon Utility Power 16th: Paragon Feature 20th: Paragon Daily Power (as well as getting from your base class a utility at 16th) So, I'm going to assume that any feature from your paragon path becomes a feature from your secondary class, and any power from your paragon path becomes (a) an increase in your overall power "count", as well as (b) an extra primary/secondary class "swap". I'm also going to assume that the action point option is instead picking up one of the at-wills from your secondary class. Unfortunately we can't easily guess what class level the power should be from. Then you'd have. 11th: Secondary Class Feature, Secondary Class At-will, Encounter Power&Swap 12th: Utility Power&Swap 16th: Secondary Class Feature Feature 20th: Daily Power&Swap (as well as getting from your base class a utility at 16th) You can then look at what % of your power count for each power type you can have from your secondary class, assuming both full heroic and paragon multiclassing (again abstracting from which levels you pick) At Will: 0% from 1-10, 33% from 11-20 Encounter: 0% from 1-3, 50% from 4-5, 33% from 7-10, 50% from 11-20 Daily: 0% from 1-9, 33% from 10-19, 50% at 20 Utility: 0% from 1-7, 50% from 8-9, 33% from 10-11, 50% from 12-15, 40% from 16-20 (this ignores the bonus encounter power from the initial feat). So, while not completely 50-50, it's not far off, and you could increase the "feel" of the secondary class a bit more by taking your swaps always at the highest level. Plus you'd have almost all the features of the secondary class, which should help increase the "feel" of being 50-50. edit: last sentence, clarity [/QUOTE]
