Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dannyalcatraz" data-source="post: 4307119" data-attributes="member: 19675">No, that's not what is bugging me at all.What bugs me is that someone in 4Ed who just started multiclassing as wizard (and some of the other spellcasters)- analogous to taking his first level as a wizard in 3Ed- has a fraction of the Wizardly options available to a PC who starts off as a 4Ed Wizard.  Its as if the School of Wizardry decided to let him call himself a Wizard without all the schooling another person had to take- something like someone with an honorary degree calling himself "Doctor."No, I take that back...its more like social promotion.  The warrior who joins the School of Magic as a "1W" still gets to call himself a wizard, despite not having mastered a second Wizardly at-will power, or any of the class' Daily or Encounter powers, unlike his classmates.I also quite dislike the limitation on taking classes.  Historically speaking, for many of my PC concepts, leveling in 2 classes has proven to be insufficient to the task of rounding them out in the way I envisioned them.  Regardless of build suggested by theNater, my 1Ed/2Ed/3Ed Rgr/Druid/MU has to sacrifice aspects of himself in order to be approximated in 4Ed.I'm big enough to admit I misread the thing about qualifying for paragon paths- I mentally substituted the word "powers" for "paths."However, I'll stand by the general substance of the other statement you quoted. The Novice and Adept Power-swap feats explicitly only let you swap out attack powers.  Acolyte Power does let you get utility powers,  many of which (as I skim through them) seem to be attack/melee oriented.  None lets you get at-will abilities.Only if you start off as a ranger- the multiclassing feat grants Hunters Quarry and a single skill.</blockquote>
