[QUOTE="WASDHammer, post: 8443204, member: 7030838"] I am about to start up a campaign that goes to level 13 and decided to spin up a multiclass that I thought was interesting and always wanted to try. An Echo Knight 6 / Chronurgy Wizard 7 MC. The idea is that the PC has an Acolyte background and is a disciple of Chronos, the Father of Time. He has studied in battle techniques and magic that manipulate time and timelines, such that he can speed up or slow down time, momentarily stop or reverse time, and even pull shadows of himself from other timelines to aid him in battle. I thought the main skills of Echo Manifest (pulling versions of me from other timelines), Chronal Shift (Reversing Time to change outcome), and Momentary Stasis (Momentarily freezing time) all lent themselves to a really cool character flavor. Downside is that this build is a bit tricky because its a MAD (STR/INT/CON), but I think could be effective. Have some questions for this group, since I have never played either an Echo Knight or a Chronurgy Wizard, so am generally looking to see if this is a viable option. Here is the proposed build.
