[QUOTE="MoonSong, post: 5993956, member: 6689464"] Well, it is obvious you only take your starting hitpoints once, and we've been told already that ability adjustments are only taken once, the one thing I'm surprised with, seems to be that multiclassing just won't grant you the proficiencies of the new class, and that is actually a nice thing, as it kills two issues at once: no more one level fighter dips to get full martial proficiencies for free, and it actually means proficiency feats are suddenly very useful (I felt like an idiot when I noticed my sorcerer was heading for the paladin path and that taking it as a class just made one martial weapon proficiency feat I took at first level moot, if I had known at character creation that my character was going to multiclass to paladin, I would have used that feat slot for something else, now given these changes in Next that won't happen again, proficiency feats will remain usefull no matter how much you multiclass and that is a good thing) However if my character multiclasses and comits to a new class he shouldn't feel like a second rate (incomplete) member of that class beyond being some effective levels below as a member of said class and having the tricks of the original one to fall back on.
