[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8684212, member: 7030563"] I almost always multiclass, and I triple classed one time (Arcane Trickster/Arcane Archer/Shadow Sorcerer). A Bladesinger is the only character I will play single classed and I even often multiclass them. Basically I find there are two reasons I multiclass. Either I like characters with a lot of options or I have a specific theme and multiclassing is the fastest way to get there. For example my Tempest Melee Cleric with Booming Blade, Dissonant Whispers and Warcaster. I wanted to be able to be a melee cleric spamming booming blade and Tempest has the exact flavor I want but lacks the booming blade cantrip. I also wanted to be able to use booming blade on a reaction attack and I really liked the idea of dissonant whispers - wade into melee and cast DW and then get an AO on the guy you just targeted. Unless you play an elf, you need 3 feats to do this single class - Magic initiate for Booming Blade, Fey Touched for Dissonant Whispers and Warcaster for the spell AO. That means 8th level on an Elf, Custom or Human or 12th level on anyone else. By multiclassing into Fathomless Warlock I got a very thematic second class that let me get all that online at 5th level with a Variant Human. I could have triple classed with the same stats and got it online at 3rd level. [/QUOTE]
