True to 2nd edition, it's balanced by having a different XP progression. [b][u]AD&D Multiclassing Rules (or 4th edition Hybrid Rules)[/u][/b] At each level you gain the following class features:[list] [*]Hit Dice: You get hit dice from both classes.[/*] [*]Highest HP from either class.[/*] [*]Armour: Proficiencies from both classes.[/*] [*]Weapons: Proficiencies from both classes.[/*] [*]Tools: Proficiencies from both classes.[/*] [*]Saving Throws: Proficiency in the saving throws of the class of your choice.[/*] [*]Skills: You are proficient in 2 skills from either class (3 skills if one of your classes is either bard or ranger, 4 skills if one of the classes is rogue).[/*] [*]Equipment: You get equipment from one of the classes (your choice).[/*] [*]Class Features: Except where noted below, you get the class features from both classes.[/*] [*]Ability Score Increase: When you gain an ability score increase from both classes at the same level, you only get the increase once for that level.[/*] [*]Extra Attack: Your extra attacks do not stack from two separate classes. You instead get the best extra attack progression from your two classes.[/*] [*]Spells Known: You know spells as determined by both classes.[/*] [*]Spell Slots: You calculate your spell slots according to either class (your choice).[/*] [/list] Instead of the standard XP progression, you level up as dictated by the following table. Hybrid Level Experience Points Level 1: 0 Level 2: 1,350 Level 3: 6,500 Level 4: 18,500 Level 5: 37,500 Level 6: 56,000 Level 7: 85,000 Level 8: 100,000 Level 9: 125,000 Level 1: 143,125 Level 11: 158,750 Level 12: 183,750 Level 13: 213,750 Level 14: 250,000 Level 15: 275,000 Level 16: 311,250 Level 17: 381,250 Level 18: 407,500 Level 19: 452,500 Level 20: 512,500 ----- If you want to go true 2e multiclassing, you could disallow 5e PHB style multiclassing from all races except human and limit certain AD&D multiclassing options to certain races.
