[QUOTE="Dog Moon, post: 2614282, member: 23023"] I have no problems with characters multiclassing in base classes if they want to. Sometimes Fighter 4/Rogue 3 [For a Thug, let's say] makes more sense for a player's idea for his character than anything else. Trying to make a Fighter 7, but removing some abilities and adding more to making it more Thuggish is just annoying because comparisons would have to be made and I dislike spending my time on things like that. As for PrCs, I like the idea that to become something, you need to learn about it. If someone wants to become an assassin, they need to mention a few levels earlier that they are training for it. However, since there is always downtime, I assume that they're training during that time, so people don't have to wait for 2 weeks ingame for the character to train. If they want to become a Purple Dragon Knight, they'll need to find the Purple Dragon Knights and then work on joining them. I do want to spend some time on it, but I don't want it to become the focus of the campaign. For the other DMs in the group, however, we can pretty much take anything we want as long as we meet the prereqs for it. The DM pretty much says no only if the class is unbalanced or something. Heck, we don't even need to be part of a group to have a PrC. My character advanced most of the Red Wizard of Thay without having any connection to that group whatsoever. [/QUOTE]
