i was going to multi-class my rogue with a fighter just to get the better hp score and i was wondering if i do that will he be able to use the weapons as a fighter and what about armor and a shield. as long as i keep his encumbrance light, would that be ok. i was also thinking of classing a fighter with my sorcerer and wizard for the hit pionts to. i know they cant use armor but would they be able to use better weapons when forced into melee or equip a shield when also forced into melee combat, keeping the shield unequiped normally.
I've used ranger to multi-class with magic-user, and gave him bow feats. That way, he was always launching missiles or slinging spells. This works best if you have the level cap remover, and can get 4 levels of ranger mixed in with the MU; bugbears are a good favored enemy with this mix 'cause there's plenty of them. Also did rogue/ranger the same way with the TWF feats being the focus...
