[QUOTE="CTurbo, post: 7306665, member: 6855234"] As with any multi class scenario, figuring out how many classes in each to take and when to take them is the problem. Any Ancients Pally wants at least 7 levels to get that awesome aura, but when to take them? You have to ask these questions. 1. What level will you start at? Starting higher than level 1 makes multiclassing much easier. 2. What level do you think you will get to before it's over? Most campaigns never make it to higher levels. 3. How often do you play and how quickly do you level up? For some campaigns, going from level 1 to level 7 can take months. 4. Are you going to NEED ASIs and/or feats? If so, you're likely going to want to stick to chunks of 4 levels at a time or maybe to level 5 Pally for extra attack. Rolling stats can help this a lot. So basically, I would maybe start Pally all the way to 7 and then take Warlock from there til the end, but of course for a long time, you will just simply be a Pally. Or, you could start Pally 1, then take 4 Warlock levels, then switch back to Pally for the next 6. This would get the feel for your character sooner. I like the synergy here for these two classes and I'm drooling over the idea of a Gestalt build between the two one day. [/QUOTE]
