I imagine that a simple fix like pegging the effectiveness of abilities at CHARACTER level, as opposed to class level, will solve a lot of multiclass issues.For example your fighter 5 / wizard 1 will be able to cast only a single spell, but the spell will be at 6th level power/caster level. So if that single spell is "Do 1d6/level Fire damage to a single target", then you do 6d6 damage--just like the 6th level wizard casting the exact same spell*. Compare to a Ftr 5 / Wiz 1 in 3E, where that puny 1st level combat spell (cast at caster level 1) is so weak at 6th level as to be almost useless.-z* Now, the 6th level wizard's spell will likely still be a little better because he's a full wizard. He's probably taken feats and talents that somehow augment his casting ability. That's the tradeoff for multiclassing/reward for focusing, but at least your 1 spell is still viable.</blockquote>
