[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 1106203, member: 478"] [b]Arcane Archer:[/b] Extremely weak. [b]Arcane Trickster:[/b] Very good class. You only lose 3 caster levels to gain almost all benefits of a rogue (altho now you don't get uncanny dodge anymore, unless you get another rogue level, losing a total of 4 caster levels). This is the only way to play a rogue/wizard multiclass effectively. [b]Archmage:[/b] It's a powerful class still, altho it's a lot weaker now. Still pretty much a must-have for high level wizards and sorcerers. [b]Assassin:[/b] dunno. [b]Blackguard:[/b] dunno. [b]Dragon Desciple:[/b] Very powerful, once you enter epic levels! Otherwise only moderately useful, except as a fighter class. [b]Duelist:[/b] Nice fighting class, but mostly for style. All in all an average class. [b]Dwarven Defender:[/b] Seems to be a nice class, altho I've never seen one in action. The reduced mobility reduces its effectiveness, tho. [b]Eldritch Knight:[/b] dunno. Seems like a nice fighter/wizard, tho, as you only lose one caster level. [b]Hierophant:[/b] Moderately useful, nothing more. Some nice abilities, but you sacrifice too much to get them. [b]Horizon Walker:[/b] dunno. [b]Loremaster:[/b] A highly underrated class, which is very good actually! [b]Mystic Theurge:[/b] Havn't seen one in action, but you lose 3 caster levels to double your spellcasting, which sounds like a fair deal and would make for a great support spellcaster.
