Originally posted by leptomeninges: I appreciate the replies. They are quite helpful. I am currently waiting for my copy to arrive (Amazon.com) and would appreciate a few more tips if anyone has time. A few specific quesitons. 1. What do I lose when I switch classes? For instance, what is the downside of taking my dual pointy-thing weilding tiger man who has been a samurai for the last x number of levels and making him suddenly a priest? You can lose the ability to wear armor or use weapons. For example, switch to Warlock, and your plate +1 will come off. You'll also lose your swords out of your hands... so make sure you have plenty of inventory space before you complete the change! Or else you'll lose those items... 2. As near as I can tell, one of the key reasons to change classes is to pick up the role-specific traits. For instance, the "Ancestral Guide" trait of samurais I think is available at level 3. Once I have said traits, is there any reason to stick with the class? Do I even want all these traits? For instance the "Fury" Barbarian trait looks like a mixed blessing. Some are class traits, and some are guild traits. Other classes can learn Iron Might, so don't wait for that one. 3. As a caster, when I switch classes do I lose the ability to use a spell school (assuming it isn't part of the new class) or only the ability to advance it? You can always use it if you learned it. You learn non-native spells at half your class and spell level. Your sorcery level also factors in; you can't learn level 7 spells in a non-native class until you're at sorcery 14. Thanks in advance for any help. [Edit: One more question] 4. I see that Ironmight is available at warrior level 4. Should I stay as a warrior long enough to pick that one up or just plan on reclassing to warrior at some future point to get it? As above, don't wait. You'll get it later.
