[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9529989, member: 7030563"] Seems to you. Believe it or don't believe it, it is still true. Again just because you psesonally have not seen it, does not mean it doesn;t exist. Further in the 2014 rules races had spells tied to specific abilities, so any Tiefling or Drow playing a Wizard, Cleric, Druid or Ranger or any High Elf playing a Socrerer, Bard, Warlock etc had multiple casting stats. Moreover I did not ask you to show me a multiclass that had three different casting stats, I asked you to show me 9 real world multiclass casters characters being played right now that do not need this. You threw up a strawman Cleric-Wizard-Eldritch Knight that is not even a real PC and only had one Cleric Cantrip and did not need to track multiple casting stats, then you went on to say this was not how 90% of people build Eldritch Knights with no evidence at all to support your positon I used a real example to back up my post, one of three multiclassed casters I am playing I could have used. You can't provide a single character in play. You claim this is not an issue for 90% of characters, but can't provide a single one? Yes and that is why you play an Eldritch Knight with your Warlock-Paladin base, so your fighter levels provide more spell slots to fuel smites and Charisma-based spells. It is why you play a Cleric to get your Wizard Heavy armor instead of a Fighter - so that you don't lose a caster level. It is why you take a Sorcerer level on your Cleric - to get Constitution save proficiency. Synergy is exactly WHY you do this! Which would be fine if those are the only three Cantrips, but they aren't and if your Wizard/EK/Cleric has Toll the Dead you do need to track whether it is Cleric or Wizard. [/QUOTE]
