D&D 3E/3.5 Multiclassing and PrCs in 3.5

[JoeGKushner]

One of my friends states that because the DMG, under the PrC section, doesn't specifically state that Prestige Classes are free from the multi-classing penalties that they are now subject to it.

Has this been covered before?

Yes. Assume it's an error.

SKR, Andy Collins, and a few other WotC (and ex-WotC peeps) have said that the paragraph stating prestige classes incur NO multi-class penalties was accidently cut during editing.

Like Hong said, its an error. Prestige classes do not give the multi-classing penalty to XP.

And DM that tried to pull a fast one like THAT, wold deserve a vigorous slapping ... with spiked adamantine gauntlets!

 

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

Considering the advantages these classes sometimes tend to give, it maybe wouldn`t be that bad...
(Oh, full spellcasting progression plus special abilities? Where can I sign in?)

 

[Darklone]

If I would use any multiclassing restrictions, I'd give them for PrClasses too

Anyone know when the DMG errata is supposed to be out?
