Severly hacked-off about F/M/C Hit points.

SnarktheStrange · 01-30-2005, 06:12 AM

I take my hit points as I roll them, rather than rerolling or going for Max on each level. The right way to handle an F/M/C would be to add up the rolls and divide by three, rounding down. Instead, You get the roll divided by three and rounded down added to the current hit points. Dangerous Darla is by far the weakest of my characters, much weaker than my pure mage.

No... that's how multiclassing is handled in BG and IWD series... roll/2 rounded down (in your case roll/3). and AFAIK that's the correct way to do it.

Yep, that's the way it goes. Just call it the price you pay for the versatility of a triple multiclass. Umm, how large is your party? I personally wouldn't use a triple multiclass with any more than a 3 character party. Any more than that, and your triple class becomes a liability because of HP, and takes a VERY long time to reach a decent spellcasting level.
