Multiclassing in 5e - Part 1

Heds and Walt are joined by special guests Elly and Lars to talk about multiclassing in 5e! We yarn about why you might want to multiclass; some need-to-know details around ability score prerequisites and some other limitations; do a deep dive on how proficiencies work, and implications for choosing your starting class; and talk about how you might roleplay a multiclassed character. We also debut a new segment, which will surely be an instant hit: Correction of the Week! 

This one's a two-parter, so keep an eye out for next week's episode, where we'll dive into how spellcasting works when you're multiclassing two spellcasters, and then take a look at each class in a bit more detail.

New episodes of Tycho's Tales are released every Tuesday at 5 pm GMT (or, for the Kiwis, every Wednesday at 6 am NZST). Find us at:
