Noob question of the day - Max APR

Post by Machado »

Hey, folks.

When multiclassing Medium BAB/Full BAB, how many levels I need to take on Full BAB class to have 4 APR?

Thanks!

You need to have 16 BAB in your pre-epic levels (char level 1-20) for that. In a generic example, the lowest you could go is 4 Full BAB vs 16 3/4 BAB levels (+4 and +12 respectively), or if for whatever reason you're dipping three classes in pre-epic at the same time and only one is full BAB, 5 Full BAB levels.

To continue to clarify, 7+9 3/4 bab will not do it. They need to be multiples of 4 for it to work out.
4+12, 8+8.

Then you get your 4 levels in full bab. This is of course, all pre epic.

Do I actually need to explain what I wrote to you, or would you like to try reading it again and perhaps be more productive with your response?

I'm quite literally providing an example in that image that it doesn't need to be a multiple of four specifically and having 4 APR with 7 Full BAB levels.

I specifically said 3/4 bab classes. Please go read my comment closer.

7 rogue, 9 Bard, 4 fighter will not receive 4 attacks, but 8 rogue, 8 Bard , 4 fighter will.

Ah, I see where misunderstanding came, you didn't mention a third class dipping there in the first post. All's good.
