Message: <blockquote data-quote="Storyteller Hero" data-source="post: 7035959" data-attributes="member: 6813635">Multiclassing in 5th edition doesn't break balance the way that it did in previous editions, and it's often the case that people new to the edition don't actually understand how it works in 5th edition - for example, you do not get the starting saving throw bonus in the first level of a new class that you're multiclassing in nor do you get all of the starting proficiencies.A multiclassed spellcaster gains spell slots from adding up levels of classes with the spell casting feature but does not gain access to higher level spells in a particular class without taking levels of that particular class. Spell slots and prepared spells are separate in this edition.Ability score increases and feats are now tied to class level instead of character level, so multiclassing presents a dilemma for certain build paths.Multiclassing in 5th edition, in most cases offers versatility at the cost of power, but not so much that the character becomes useless.Multiclassing can offer new styles of gameplay and new flavor, but it's not likely to pose any problem for the table in 5th edition.That said, I'll also leave a link to a book of multiclass feats on DMsGuild for anyone looking to add more flavor to their multiclassing. These feats offer new abilities based on the classes that a character is multi classed in, such as a feat that grants a rogue/knowledge cleric the ability to obtain information about a creature upon successfully applying Sneak Attack (reading their blood so to speak). <a href="http://www.dmsguild.com/product/202906/Multiclass-Feats-5th-Edition?filters=45469" target="_blank">http://www.dmsguild.com/product/202906/Multiclass-Feats-5th-Edition?filters=45469</a></blockquote>
