So, since this thread seems to be about multiclassing... im curious, in 5E, your level in a class decides when you get a feat, for example if im level 2rogue, and level 3 fighter, i wouldent have got a feat yet, as in DnD 5e, its tied to having 4levels in a class...and giving you a feat every four... so the franken build of muticlassing as 12 classes wouldent in 5E get any feats... do anyone know how larian will handle this ?
Yes, this seems to be the case. I’m not sure if many people realize this is how the game works. I’ve seen lots of people posting builds that are like 3/3/6 and wondering if they realize they are limiting themselves to 1 feat or stat boost. It’s for reasons like this that respecing is necessary.
I think people are sometimes overestimating ASI and feats compared to class features. With level 12 I'm quite certain you can get very far with a primary stat of 16 if you really want to (less for primary spell casters though). Also comparing for example two levels of fighter for second wind and action surge to any feat or or one to two levels of barbarian for rage (not to mention 3 for subclass access) can be very rewarding and have higher impact than most feats. I would say in 5e its quite balanced especially if you don't go above level 12. But it really depends on the player and their play style and what they are going for.
Just a side note regarding the 3/3/6 build comment.
A fighter gets two feats by sixth level. So a 3/3/6 build can net two feats as opposed to one. Yes, it misses out on a third feat, but that's ideally factored into the split in some manner.
