[QUOTE="greycastle, post: 819632, member: 11130"] I've been thinking recently, because i'm a selfish bastard... I've figured classes into Base classes Divine Spellcaster (Cleric/Druid) Arcane Spellcaster (Sorceror/Wizard) Fighter (Barbarian/Fighter/Monk) Rogue (Bard/Rogue) Divine Fighter (Paladin/Ranger) Now why should a character be penalized if he takes a few levels in a certain class but then doesn't 'focus' as it says in the PHB, but instead completely stops learnign from that class? Imagine a Rogue3/Fighter2 (with a race that has Wizard as favoured class, for example)...now why, if that character elects to never take antoehr level of fighter, can he simply not gain any more levels, or suffer an experience penalty... I'm planning on playing a Rogue, with 4 fighter levels...but i have no interest in 1. taking more levels to even classes out, and 2. i'm very un happy about the penalty... now to do away with it completely is a bit hard...but perhaps to install a system, where if you declare to take no more levels *unless it's paladin, or monk which are specifically restricted classes* then you do no suffer penaltys unless you take another level, in which case you earn the -20% exp...it just would seem a little hard, as i believe many rogues would have at least fighter levels, Druids a few ranger levels, Cleric of lawful good dieties paladin levels, Barbarians a few ranger/druid levels... Any opinons? [/QUOTE]
