[QUOTE="Cette, post: 6745917, member: 6802607"] I tend to run odd ball builds to keep myself amused on top of the roleplaying so Multi classing happens a lot. More often than not I'm optimizing secondary things just to get those characters back to power parity with a decent single class though so it's certainly not for the power increases. Examples: Halfling Barbarian 3 Bear totem/open hand monk the rest. Played as not so much a traditional monk but as a totemic warrior who channels primal spirits through his body to achieve effects that just so happen to be mechanically identical to a monk. A 4th Kobold Hybrid Rune Priest/Barbarian. He studied the the runes in an attempt to use their power to become a full dragon. When that didn't work out the backup plan was using his newfound understanding of the building blocks of the universe to smash people in the face more effectively. Also one of the fire close blast powers made a pretty good fluff sub in for dragons breath. And not Multiclass but definitely oddball a Half Drow ancients paladin who was covered in growing plants and dual wielded whips that were thorned vines produced by the plants. Roughly based off the MAXX in personality. Not super in tune with what's going on around him and no past but feels compelled to help. Will admit I'm not super fond of people who always do it for power boosts. [/QUOTE]
