There are feats and spells which assist in penetrating magic resistance, so the question of which has the higher chance of beating spell resistance would be relative to the abilities of the charactesr. Spells like Greator Malison, and the feat "Spell Penetration" should make a difference.
I'm only guessing, but the multi powers of the cleric/mage depending on wis/int scores of course, is more likely to have greater abilities in this way since it gets access to both schools - even if I'd fancy the 20th level cleric in an all out melee.
But yes, as a personal choice to restrain myself from powergaming too much, I'm avoiding multi-classing. [img]smile.gif[/img]
