Message: <blockquote data-quote="Spatzimaus" data-source="post: 822925" data-attributes="member: 3051">It's just a bit abuseable in certain ways.  Let's say I'm a level 19 Cleric.  Instead of taking level 20 to slightly increase the number of spells I can cast each day, I take a level of Wizard, and then pay a lot of money to fill up my spellbook with all the utility spells I can.So, I can cast Mage Armor that lasts all day, or a Shield that lasts for a while, or a 5-shot Magic Missile, or whatever.  It may not seem like such a big deal, since you can already do most of this with Miracle, but it's something.There are just quite a few level 1 spells that are still useful at high levels thanks to their scaling, and letting someone get full use out of splashing one class can get a bit out of hand.Now, what we do IMC is let like classes combine.  Cleric/Paladin, Druid/Ranger, Sorcerer/Bard, Psion/Psychic Warrior.  Caster levels stack, spells per day/power points stack, spells known are just put on a common list.  (Note: removed healing spells from Bards).  The Psionic rules already have something similar; power points from Psions and Psychic Warriors go into a common pool, so we just took the concept a bit further.To think of it another way: a Paladin is a lot like a Fighter/Cleric, right?  So a Fighter/Paladin is just a Fighter/Cleric who's shifted more towards the Fighter side.  A Paladin/Cleric should be like a Fighter/Cleric who's shifted more towards the Cleric side, but to do that their spellcasting abilities have to stack better than they do now.</blockquote>
