[QUOTE="Shroomy, post: 4589915, member: 32739"] 4e multi-classing is much more than just the multi-class feats. Those are major parts of a larger system that also includes class specific feats, general feats, paragon paths, paragon multi-classing, and even epic destinies (the very cool martial archetype destiny in [i]Martial Power[/i]). I'm currently playing an eladrin artificer multi-classed into rogue, and I've only taken the initial multi-class feat (Sneak of Shadows), which gave me skill training in Thievery and sneak attack 1/encounter. I haven't taken any power swap feats (yet) because my sneak attack synergizes nicely with my current selection of artificer powers, all of which use crossbows and any melee weapon of my choice (which is now the rapier). I plan on taking the Watchers of the Night PP (from [i]Dragon 366[/i]), an eladrin racial path for rogues that mixes rogue elements with the arcane (effectively, I'm doubling up on the multi-classing here), and my feat selection has been geared around making me more "rogue-like," even if strictly speaking, they are not class specific feats (Quick Draw, Nimble Blade, Weapon Proficiency [rapier] are my current feats, and I also have Ritual Caster, with rituals centered around rogue-like abilities). Soon, I will take Backstabber, Fey Gambit, and the one feat whose name escapes me, but allows you to spend an AP to deliver sneak attack damage again with your AP action. All in all, I feel like I'm pretty much playing a very effective multi-classed character, and I've only scratched a fraction of what the system offers if I really wanted to pursue the 4e multi-class options.
