Would like for other people to MC into another class if they want, but not have a dead level at 5. |
| #2NevvurApr 16, 2015 11:49:06 | The first thing that comes to mind is an additional fighting style from the class list that would have gained extra attack. |
| #3melloredApr 16, 2015 12:05:18 | I would simply skip that level and take whatever you get at level 6. i.e. a ranger5/fighter4 would skip fighter 5 and get a ABI/Feat from fighter 6.
Though not things like spell slots and ki. |

| #5NoctaemApr 16, 2015 12:20:35 | What page can I find the rules you guys are talking about with regards to MC'ing and not gaining additional attacks like you describe? I have a player who is attempting to do this and I would like to be able to show him so he can avoid the pitfall. |

| #9HermanTheWizeApr 16, 2015 13:07:31 | I like multiclassing, but I hate hick-ups while leveling. I like more smooth progression and I don't think it would hurt anything if someone got a small bonus instead just a HP roll. Kind of takes the fun out of the leveling if you multiclass two figher-esk classes. I just think it gives another small reason for people to be turned off of multiclassing.
If a person has a reason to multiclass their character, I don't think they should be punished because of it. I played a barbarian who had a reason to multi into fighter, his brother died and he thought if he could just work harder at his fighting skills and not just rage he would be better suited to protect people. Wether or not it's actually better mechanically, that was his reasoning and I didn't really want to go to fighter 5 because of the "dead level", kind of foiling my desire to multiclass. |

| #13WeedeaterApr 16, 2015 15:41:28 | Warlock isn't part of this discussion. He can just pick a different invocation and use the other classes second attack. That's bonus enough. |
| #14FrogReaverApr 16, 2015 23:02:59 | I would give a feat / ASI. |

| #17IxidorRSApr 17, 2015 7:57:28 | If you're MCing this option, you've surely got a reason to do it even without getting the second attack. |

| #20BRJNApr 18, 2015 18:54:26 | If you are homegaming, you could give the character some noncombat magic item that lets you hand-wave something that otherwise entails a lot of boring paperwork. (4e Basket of Everlasting Provisions comes to mind. For fluff make it divinely conceived, so it offers only Fish on Friday and your midnight snack is usually Milk and Honey.)
