For me 'going nova' means to use up all limited resources (in this case casting spells) in a single combat. If I cast one quarter of my available spells in each of four different encounters that's not 'going nova'.Generally, multi-classed casters have more spells per day as single-classed characters. Since they still cast the same number of spells per round it follows that they'll be able to last through more encounters. That's the only advantage of multi-classes casters - besides the greater flexibility.Since combats in D&D 3E tend to last only a short number of rounds, the multi-classed caster is at a distinct disadvantage regarding the potential damage output per encounter compared to a single-classed caster.Or are you talking about something completely different?!</blockquote>
