[QUOTE="Shanti, post: 4586360, member: 66384"] I'm still a relative newbie and my group is playing a gestalt campaign next week. This is the first time playing gestalt for me and I was hoping to get some help building a 1st level character using the elite array (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8 arranged in any order). The first two campaigns I've played with this group I played spellcasters which I love, but I think I'd like to step up and try some melee action this time around. The thought of not being able to cast [I]any[/I] spells at all is a little tough for me to swallow, so I was leaning towards something like a Paladin/Monk, Cleric/Monk or maybe even just a Fighter/Rogue and have fun with sneak attack and such instead of casting spells. Prestige classes are available with clearance from the DM, and I have the books "Sword and Fist" and "Blood and Tome" for extra feats/prestige classes in the fighter/monk or sorcerer/wizard areas. Anything else beyond the PHB with other classes aren't an option unless the books they're in show up at the local used bookstore. :) Thanks in advance for the help! [/QUOTE]
