Hey everyone.

A friend of mine is about to start up a game with me and another guy, meaning the introduction of gestalt characters to both of us. I was throwing together a character last night, and was looking through the threads and couldn't find any information on saving throws.

My question is this: If I have a gestalt character, when do the save bonuses go up? My plan is to have a gestalt half-elf ranger/wizard, then multi-classing (?) into half-elf paragon/ranger and human paragon/ranger between 2nd and 7th levels, with the ultimate goal being to prestige into gestalt arcane archer/wizard.

The saving throws are really throwing me off, however. I'm not sure when each one goes up. Please help!

If your getting confused on this from all the multiclassing, I suggest going to your DM and asking to use the fractions presented in UA. It makes keeping track of all of this much easier. Unless your horrible with simple fractions, then its just a new nightmare.

Now to actually Help you. The key to remember is that you take the better bonus at each level. Of course doing this is always debatable.
L1- F+2,R+2,W+2 (Wizard/Ranger)
L2- F+3,R+4,W+2 (Half-Elf/Ranger)
L3- F+3,R+5,W+3 (Half-Elf/Ranger)
L4- F+4,R+6,W+4 (Half-Elf/Ranger)
L5- F+4,R+6,W+6 (Human/Ranger)
L6- F+5,R+7,W+7 (Human/Ranger)
L7- F+6,R+8,W+7 (Human/Ranger)
L8- F+8,R+10,W+8 (Wizard/Arcane Archer)
L9- F+9,R+11,W+8 (Wizard/Arcane Archer)
L10- F+9,R+11,W+9 (Wizard/Arcane Archer)

Hopes this helps

Update: I just mapped out the fractional progression and it seems to almost completely match the pattern you posted above. That's pretty amazing to me (since this is my first time doing it this way). Thanks again!
