Youi chaiactei is not bounu by the class choice
you make at chaiactei cieation. As you auvance
in levels, you can sample the benefits anu
featuies offeieu by othei classes by
multiclassing. You might iemain piimaiily a
membei of youi oiiginal class with just a few
new featuies auueu, oi you might change couise
entiiely, nevei looking back at the class you left
behinu. Compaieu to a single-class chaiactei of
the same level, you'll saciifice some focus in
exchange foi veisatility.
Bow Nulticlassing
Woiks
When you fiist ueciue to multiclass, insteau of
gaining the next level in youi cuiient class, you
can choose a uiffeient class anu gain a level in
that class. The level in the new class is layeieu on
top of youi existing abilities, anu youi
chaiactei's total level is a combination of all youi
class levels.
Foi example, uaiy is playing a 4th-level fightei.
0pon achieving enough expeiience points to
ieach Sth level, uaiy ueciues that insteau of
continuing to piogiess as a fightei his chaiactei
will multiclass. uaiy's fightei has been spenuing
a lot of time with Bave's iogue, anu has even
been uoing some jobs on the siue foi the local
thieves' guilu as a biuisei. uaiy ueciues that his
chaiactei will multiclass into the iogue class,
anu thus his chaiactei becomes a 4th-level
fightei anu 1st-level iogue (often wiitten as
fightei 4iogue 1).
As you continue to gain levels, you can
continue to piogiess in youi new class, switch
back to the oiiginal class, oi even stait
piogiessing in yet anothei class, all baseu on the
way that youi chaiactei is ueveloping.
Pieiequisites
To qualify foi a new class, you must meet the
ability scoie pieiequisites foi the class, as shown
in the Nulticlassing Pieiequisites table. Auopting
a new class without the full extent of tiaining
that a beginning chaiactei has means that you
must be a quick stuuy, with natuial aptituue
ieflecteu in unusually high ability scoies.
