[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 8615130, member: 87792"] Quick breakdown: [LIST] [*]The level 5 bump as mentioned is [I]huge[/I]. Its an extra attack for almost all martial characters, all but doubling their DPR. Third level spells are also huge. [LIST] [*]The only characters that should consider multiclassing before 5 are rogues, alchemist or artillerist artificers, and at the outside monks. And even there it's questionable (and they don't synergise well). [/LIST] [*]Fighters, rogues, and arguably barbarians get their last good ability at level 11. It might be worth hanging on for the level 12 ASI - but multiclass after that. [*]Spellcasters shouldn't give up more than a single level in their primary class before level 18 - they find themselves an entire spell level behind in terms of spells known and upcast spells are almost never as good as at-level spells.
