[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 8449854, member: 6779196"] No problem! One thing to keep in mind is that most games don’t end up going all the way to 20th level. Groups fall apart for boring out of game reasons like scheduling, and a lot of published adventure paths only go to 10th or 11th level. So while taking 11 levels in Fighter and then 9 in Barbarian may be the most efficient full 20-level build [I]in theory[/I], it may not end up being the best option for you if it means you never actually get to play a the character you wanted because the game ended before you could get any levels in Barbarian. The main things to consider when multiclassing are what features of each class are most important to you, and how long you’re willing to delay milestones like ASI levels and Extra Attack levels to get them.
