Due to the way proficiency bonuses, hit dice, and stacking class benefits work, there's really nothing abusive that could come out of such a scenario. Nothing I can think of anyway.Besides, is an [Eldritch Knight 14/Battlemaster 6] really that much crazier than a [Wizard 7/Other Warrior Type Class 7/Battlemaster 6]? (Talking about mechanical effectiveness here, not whether or not the character concept itself fits your world or other such irrelevant considerations.)Isn't this the "rulings not rules" edition? Go for it, give it a spin. Worst case scenario you mess something up and report back on it so we can all learn why we shouldn't have done it.</blockquote>
