Hybrid Character Playtest

[Stalker0]

How broken can taking Hybrid Talent multiple times be?

Against non hybrid classes it is the most broken thing. The thing that "balances" hybrid characters is that they can do a little of what each class can do, what not too much.

If you start allowing them to gain more and more class abilities, you quickly have a concept that is as good in two classes as a normal class is in one.

Further, feats in 4e are not an expensive enough cost for this, I would always trade a feat for new classes abilities.

Now if it was 2 or 3 feats then suddenly we might be talking.

All and all I'm pretty happy with hadeari aka the vanishing blade. I will more than likely retrain shared pact to something else, he's never close enough to an ally to use it. Thinking about two fold curse, overwelming critical, or maybe go the two weapon fighting route mostly for color.
I would love to hear some opinions on him and possibly differnt ideas on what direction I should take him.
