That's already covered. A quote from Chapter 5:

"When assigning weapon proficiencies for your first class, plan ahead and be aware of where you're going to put them in your second class, as well. Let's say you really like 2-Handed Swords, so your Fighter puts lots of points into Large Sword. Then you Dual to Cleric, and eventually get your Fighter half back—and all your points in Large Sword are gone. Well, duh, Clerics can't use bladed or piercing weapons, ever, so those points got erased. (Clerics and Druids are the only classes where you have to worry about this; A Fighter->Mage can use Halberds and Composite Long Bows if you want.)"
