Message: <blockquote data-quote="Plane Sailing" data-source="post: 2938241" data-attributes="member: 114">Here is the rectification.1. ignore my first stream-of-thought solution and go with my second one in the post above, i.e. caster level in any class = that classes caster level + half other character levels. Thus whether Sor10/Wiz10, Wiz10/Clr10, Clr10/Dru10, you have caster level 15 in each of your classes and have spells known and castable as per that. Note that for Clr10/Wiz10 this exactly mirrors what you would get with Clr5/Wiz5/Mystic Theurge10.The problem that still remains is with grossly unequal levels. As someone put it in the other thread, it seems wrong that an 18th level fighter taking 1 level Wizard suddenly gets caster level 10 and 5th level spells. (Heck, it not only sounds wrong it IS wrong!)So, a refinement of my rule would be called for. It seems to work OK for balanced classes (the normal typical worst case scenario) but breaks down for wildly imbalanced classes. Perhaps there could be a limit that your caster level can be no more than 50% more than your casting class level.That leaves the 10/10 multiclass in the position that works OK, it stops the 18/1 multiclass from getting absurd... where is the effective breakpoint?Wiz20 = CL20Ftr2/Wiz18 = CL19Ftr4/Wiz16 = CL18Ftr6/Wiz14 = CL17Ftr8/Wiz12 = CL16Ftr10/Wiz10 = CL15Ftr11/Wiz9 = CL14Ftr12/Wiz8 = CL12Ftr13/Wiz7 = CL10Ftr14/Wiz6 = CL9Ftr16/Wiz4 = CL6Ftr18/Wiz2 = CL3Ftr19/Wiz1 = CL1Ftr20 = CL0That looks pretty good to me.</blockquote>
