Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jeff Wilder" data-source="post: 1775462" data-attributes="member: 5122">It's also probably not a problem because for the most part fighters who take levels in rogue are in it for the combat blend and special abilities, not for the actual "rogue slot" in the party.  Believe me, I (unfortunately) know from experience: a multi-classed rogue simply cannot measure up to a dedicated rogue when it comes to traditional rogue abilities.  At best, the fighter/rogue will be doing a lot of assiting of skill checks.I suppose I'm having a hard time understanding why the two can't share the face role.  It's an advantage in nearly every social situation to have two advocates for a single position ... good cop-bad cop, tag-team haggling, the pigeon drop, Sean Connery's sublime intimidation scheme in The Untouchables ... whatever.  Two is better than one.If they really can't work it out, the best solution is for one of them to create a different character, with the understanding that if the other face dies, the guy who took a back seat gets first crack at being the new face.</blockquote>
