Any result when you just keep getting better at being a rogue every singel level up while never improving as a cleric does not fit the bill.Maybe from an optimizing point of view this may be true, but from a roleplaying side of things being encaged on whatever you decide for first level and having to plan longterm in order to barely escape out of it was the problem, even if it took no effort, not being to multiclasse out of your first class is what makes 4e so restrictiveWhat made 3.x complicated (or at least from my perspective, I'm not an optimizer) wasn't the ability to multiclass at every level, but the heavy requisites for prestige classes which commonly included the need to multiclass.</blockquote>
