[QUOTE="Terramotus, post: 4249099, member: 7220"] I'll be most likely giving them an additional multiclass feat, the one that grants the class abilities, in addition to the at-will as an encounter power, both being required to be from the same class. That is, as long as the class feature feats aren't crazy-powerful. That makes them interesting and something I would want to play. The addition of that seems like it's probably enough to me. I don't think I see a need to turn the Con bonus into a floating bonus. I kinda like it, actually; it's almost like a hybrid vigor, such as with mules. It also no longer seems too out-of-this-world, since there's no stat penalty to Con for elves. I don't think I'll add anything about the option of a third multiclass. There seems to be a pretty big opportunity cost for multiclassing in 4E, since you're just swapping powers. And anyway, the Paragon Paths potentially allow multiclassing with a still different class, if my understanding is correct. I don't think being able to have powers from yet a fourth or even fifth class (1 racial, 1-2 through feats, 1 paragon path) is a very great racial ability due to the limited number of powers, and any use derived from it is probably going to be some bizarre combination that really circumvents the system.
