Message: <blockquote data-quote="ECMO3" data-source="post: 9492687" data-attributes="member: 7030563">I play a lot of characters to high level and they are almost all multiclassed.This is neat, and if you are creating a 19th or 20th level character it is simple to do it this way.If you are playing a character to level 20 though it is a much more difficult proposition.  For example the the 18th levle character you mention (15/3) was 15th level at some point.  Was that 12/3 or 15/0?  In either case I could have gotten a general feat at the very next level and had the benefits of said feat at level 16-18.  By not taking the feat at 16th level I am getting a better feat at 19th level but losing out to having any new feat for 3 levels.There is also the propensity to slip in another class just to delay getting a feat for a level.For example I am currently playing a Ranger 4/Monk 1.  Assuming she survives, at the end of the game she will be a Fey Wanderer Ranger 14/Monk 1/Glamour Bard 5 and at 18th level she will nominally advance in Ranger to be a Ranger 12/Monk 1/Bard 5 ..... well that has me thinking do I want to slip another class in there at 18th level (probably Sorcerer, Clerc or Druid) or take another Bard level just so I take Ranger 12 at 19th level and can get a boon feat instead of a General?I think Multiclassed characters generally have much better combat ability than single classed characters at most levels if building for combat is a consideration in the build.My Ranger/Monk noted above is currently 5th level and from level 2-4 I was outdamaging everyone else in the group.  I am keeping up ok now even without extra attack and will be outdamaging them again next level.  At high levels I will have a lot of spell slots, bard abilities, inspiration and regular reactions in addition to decent damage.</blockquote>
