[QUOTE="mneme, post: 5630228, member: 59248"] Danny: sure, but not every option is optimal or available for pretty much every case in the rules. The thing is, it's a very good option. Unlike feat-based power swaps, when you take an out of class PP, you swap a class feature, encounter power, AP feature, utility and (eventually) another class feature and a daily from your main class for one intended for a class you multiclassed into. If you pick the right PP, this can often mean that you get some real multiclass power to throw around. A multiclass Battle Engineer gets a good attack with a +Wis attack/damage buff, a strong +striker AP feature, and a strong daily weapon buff. Two strong +leader features A multiclass Soul Igniter (Shaman) gets the ability to boost party speed, reflex, and damage with her Soulfire at will surprisingly often -- 3x when she uses an action point (including herself), as well as whenever anyone crits and once per encounter as part of an encounter power. Again, an excellent option with immediate +leader abilities (as well as some nice bursts). And while I so don't have time to research it, there are similarly strong options for many other classes. Probably not every class -- but it's hardly an option one can discount. [/QUOTE]
