Swift Hunter-like feats and Gestalt

[Nifft]

I think it's not unreasonable to extend that to forbid "hybrid" feats as well.

This would also be quite reasonable (though I'd be more inclined to listen if a player asked for a hybrid feat than if he asked for a hybrid class).

For what its worth... IME; Hybrid PrCs aren't exactly "OMFG Borken!". They make for some rather cool builds though.

Player X: "I'm making a Cleric / Wizard / Mystic Theurge | Warlock!"
Me: Groovy.

But I'm rather insane like that (it justifies me to make NPCs who are just as ridiculously overpowered... and at higher level. )

I would be sure not to allow the multi-class feats, as I would not allow prestige classes that double up class abilities. And for th same reason.

I would simply disallow Gestalt rule when a PC can access to reasonable multi-role prestige class or multi-role feats (and practiced spellcaster feat).

Gestalt is an optional rule which meant to allow a multi-role PC from lower level, which was made long before those feats which help multicalss builds in later supplements were invented.

The power of double prestige calsses and multi-classsing feats is nothing compared to gestalt. \The point I was making is that adding them together is too much, and would effectively allow a geatlat to take 3 or even 4 classes at once. That is overpowered.
