[QUOTE="Volaran, post: 4427285, member: 592"] To be honest, I haven't been following the multiclass debate much, nor have I noticed it being too prominent on the Paizo boards here. This hasn't really come up in play for my groups ever, but what specifically was wrong with the x/x prestige classes in 3.5 (Mystic Theurge, Eldritch Knight, and Arcane Trickster being the primary ones, I suppose). When I had seen them in action, the seemed to do exactly what we needed: blend the basic abilities of two classes without having as much kick in either area as a single member of the class. Is it a case where people are hoping for a solution not requiring a prestige class, or a hybrid class like the hexblade or duskblade? Wanting to play an effective Cleric/Wizard type character from level 1, etc. The main reason I'm asking here is that from what I have read of the Beta, most of my personal concerns have been met already. So if I have a year to help Paizo with playtesting and feedback, I would certainly be happy to focus on other areas I haven't been concerned with. [/QUOTE]
