Well, the main reason they did that was for playability. I mean, if they didn't have some shortcomings, why play anything else. Btw, for your scenario about a mage, yes, they are penalized too. No kits. Same with the thief. Not too sure about clerics, as I don't play kits and never really bothered to look them up. That's the one benefit you get from dual classing a human. They can go up as high as you want them. Multi-class are just too flighty to really specialize in anything. That's what the D&D books said a long time ago though. I believe with the 3rd edition, that has changed though. Sorry charlie, but Trix are for kids. LOL. You can use shadow cheater and fix im up though.
