    [​IMG] IIRC yes, but once you multiclass you cannot go any higher as paladin or monk. I don't think they are including the FR special versions.

    If you are a monk and start multiclassing as a mage, you cannot gain anymore levels in monk. Same with the paladin.

    The other way around: if you start as mage you can multiclass to monk (or paladin) and gain as much monk/paladin levels as you want.

    Only if you take a class different than the monk or paladin, you can't level in monk/paladin anymore.

    Clear?

    No, 3E rules are different. Every time you level up, you choose 1 class to level up in. For example you can start as a thief, when you level up, you can take a another level as thief or you can choose any other class like a fighter. If you choose a fighter, you'll be a 2nd level character with one level in thief and one in fighter. Etc.

    Monks and Paladins are special because once you take any other class level, you can never take a level in Paladin or Monk again.

    Not entirely true. If Paladin or Monk is your favored class, (which may be if you're a human or a half-elf and paladin or monk is your highest level class) then you can go back and gain Pal/Monk levels after having gained some levels in another class.

    Well, I may be mistaken but that is how I know it works.

    As far as I know, there is no way a paladin or a monk can continue advancing in Pal or Mnk after multiclassing, even if the Pal or Mnk is human of half-elf.
    The only exceptions that come to mind are the issues discussed in the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, which allows Paladins and Monks of certain dieties to multiclass to certain classes and still continue advancing in Pal or Mnk class.

    [​IMG] Well, PoR featured this rule, so I assumed it was a 3ed rule as well. My bad, just checked the Phb and it seems I was mistaken.

    [​IMG] Por applies the 3ed rules in a very interesting way. So don't believe that game.

    True. Believe the PHB over other sources.
