Nani? 05-18-06, 11:32 PM	I want to double check to see if I understand how it works? A hypothetical Rogue6/Ranger2 would have a BaB of: +6/+1 or would it be +6. Fighter10/Wizard10 (yea, I know) +15/+5 or +15/+10/+5 Fighter2/Ranger2/Rogue3 +6/+1 or +6/+0 (two attacks) or +6 Rogue11/Wizard6 +11/+6/+1 or +11/+3 or +10/+5 In each case, believe the first example is correct. Please note, I don't have PhP on me (traveling). All the best, Nani?
Nephlite 05-18-06, 11:42 PM	I want to double check to see if I understand how it works? A hypothetical Rogue6/Ranger2 would have a BaB of: +6/+1 or would it be +6. 2 Bab from Ranger + 4 Rogue = +6 and since we have 6 extra one at +1 So +6/+1. Fighter10/Wizard10 (yea, I know) +15/+5 or +15/+10/+5 +15/+10/+5. Every time you have you have bab you minus 5 for next attack (until hit 20, than stop). All Bab stacks. Fighter2/Ranger2/Rogue3 +6/+1 or +6/+0 (two attacks) or +6 +6/+1; TWF makes it with light offhand + feat would look: +4/+4/-1. (you get extra attack at highest bab) Fihting with two weapons doesn't change bab but it does change hit chance. Rogue11/Wizard6 +11/+6/+1 or +11/+3 or +10/+5 In each case, believe the first example is correct. Please note, I don't have PhP on me (traveling). All the best, Nani? +3 wizard + 8 Rogue=11/+6/+1 So yeah that is correct.
Mentalmegabody 05-18-06, 11:46 PM	So desu... Yeah it's very easy, just add the BABs together and remember when you have +6 and every +5 after that, you get an additional attack +6/+1, +11/+6/+1, +16/+11/+6/+1 And multiclassing spell casters sux for BAB, but then again, it's not that important for a mage.. :P
Nani? 05-18-06, 11:52 PM	Thanks, also I reversed the answers on the Fighter/Wizard. And yea, I know it sucks but I just needed to work out my "hypotheticals". Thanks. All the best, Nani?
Seyrro 05-19-06, 01:14 AM	I'm not sure I follow this completely... maybe Nani is asking a different question than I am. I would like to know about the SECOND attack BAB when you multiclass. For example, if you have a Monk 7 / Bard 7, according to my understanding of the rules, you would have a BAB of +10/+1. My problem with this is that Monks & Bards have the same BAB progression, so a Monk OR Bard at 14th level would have a BAB of +10/+5. It seems like an undue penalty when both classes have the same progression. How do you determine what your Multiclass BAB for your 2nd Attack would be for your Character Level - instead of just stacking the BAB for the 1st Attack and throwing on a +1 for the second attack - when you multiclass?
Sledged 05-19-06, 01:32 AM	I would like to know about the SECOND attack BAB when you multiclass. For example, if you have a Monk 7 / Bard 7, according to my understanding of the rules, you would have a BAB of +10/+1.If you have a BAB of +6 or more, your second attack due to BAB is always, always, always five point less than the first. So if your BAB is +10, the second is +5 every single time, no exceptions.
Seyrro 05-19-06, 03:14 AM	Awesome. :) Thanks for the help! P.S. What book/source do you find this ruling in? I'd like to be able to cite it to my DM.
Lotus Crane 05-19-06, 03:47 AM	It's so simple, it's not even a "ruling," it's just the rule. It should probably be in the multi-classing section of the PHB or SRD. And remember, this doesn't just apply to multi-classing standard classes, it also applies to PrC's.
Sledged 05-19-06, 11:19 AM	In the SRD it's in the Combat Statistics (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/combatStatistics.htm) section. In the PHB, it's in the "Combat" chapter under "Attack Bonus." I don't have my PHB in front of me, so I can't give the exact page number, so just look for it in the table of contents.
