I'll keep an eye on it, but I might house rule that if you have five combined levels in classes that grant Extra Attack, you get one Extra Attack (non-stacking with any other Extra Attacks you may have).What? It's by far the most important class feature in any martial class. Spellcasters cast spells; martial classes attack. Extra Attack means you get twice as many attacks. That's enormous.But the more I think about it, the more I think multiclassing before 5th level, except maybe a 1st-level dip to get proficiencies and such, is a bad idea for anybody. For casters, it means delaying your access to 3rd-level spells; a scaled-up 2nd-level spell doesn't come close (compare scaled-up scorching ray to fireball). For noncasters, it means delaying your Extra Attack. There is pretty much nothing you can possibly get out of MCing that makes up for that. Once you hit 5th, then you can start branching out.</blockquote>
