Both seem like they’d be a lot of fun. And I’m torn! Help me decide?

Right now my monk is level 5 half wood elf if this makes any difference.

Your gonna miss out on two feats doing that split. You should consider 8/4 so you can get all your feats.

Plus it doesn't really matter what you pick, you can always respec to try something else if it didn't work out.

Only one feat.

4 Cleric + 4 Monk = 2 feats

4 Monk + 8 Monk + 4 Cleric = 3 feats

For a monk, it seems like maybe being able to cast spirit guardians as you run around punching everything might be worth more than a feat...

And it isn't losing two feats at all.

You can't do 4/8/4 without mods. Also that split would give you an extra feat (total of 4, but again, can't do it without mods).

Also OP was asking about 6/6 classes

Edit: Your right, it's only missing one feat, but still not good use IMHO

[–] kromem@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You absolutely can do 4 Class A, 8 Class A, 4 Class B for any build in the game without mods...

I must be confused what's being discussed then because I thought max level was 12. Did they increase in a patch?

[–] SketchySeaBeast@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think they are saying just do 8 of class A then 4 of B but in a weird way.

[–] kromem@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Not a weird way. I was pointing out the feat breakpoints.

[–] kromem@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

8 levels of class A and 4 levels of class B is 12 levels

The 4 8 4 was pointing out feat breakpoints. 4 of one class, 8 of that same class (in the example, both Monk), 4 of the second class.

It's only an 8/4 build, but it was a discussion of calculating feats.
