How about gestalt Duskblade/Rogue?

How about gestalt Duskblade/Rogue?

Given the sheer elfyness of the Duskblade, that would work!

I really like the idea, but I certainly think there might be balance issues. Maybe if we complete the homage-to-previous-editions and only have a specific list of allowed combinations, but even then.

What if the the third class had to be Warrior or Expert?


glass.

I had in mind only triple multiclasses that were legal in 2e.

If I remember correctly, only demi-humans could multiclass in 1E/2E, and elves and half-elves could triple multiclass. You could allow this in 3.X, but a LA would be appropriate. Even in 1E/2E multiclass characters were lower level then their single class counterparts, as they had to split experience points equally between both/all three classes.

Yup. And let's not forget the chewy goodness of the Fighter/Mage/Cleric, Bard/Cleric or (after the Bard's Handbook was released) Fighter/Bard. Wooooo!

Do it, but assess an XP penalty.

My favoured solution, but I've never done it in practice
