Message: <blockquote data-quote="reapersaurus" data-source="post: 1053973" data-attributes="member: 1194">Your argument is well-detailed, but it's premise doesn't hold with me.You base your argument on comparing bad multiclassing examples (Wiz5/Clr5).I don't see why a primary spellcasting class should be multiclassing. It's part and parcel of the gig - if you wanna cast spells, than cast spells. If you want to fight, don't dilute your levels with those of casting.I just literally don't see a problem with wizard multiclassing, because I view a wizard as a solo class. With enough spellcasting, he can fill in for almost anyone's role. He can be sneaky, he can do hellacious damage, he can Polymorph into a better form for combat, he has utility spells, divination, he can even Transform himself into a good fighter. Why would he want any other class but more Wizard (other than a broken PrC, of course)?and we all know how much better a cleric can be in combat than a fighter.All I see when mages say "I want to multiclass" is "I want the best of both worlds".And with these new PrC's that let the wizard do it, I see "I don't want to pay for the advantages."You know what - if WotC made a Paladin PrC that gave full cleric spellcasting + the benefits of a Paladin, than I'd say Go have fun with your AT, MyT and EK.But I can't, because Paladins are screwed when it comes to multiclassing.... STILL. And there's a hell of a lot more cross-over between Paladins and either fighters or clerics than there are any other classes. IOW, there's more justification (in and out of game) for a Cleric PrC that grants almost full spellcasting + Paladin benefits than for the trio of cheesy Wizard PrCs.</blockquote>
