it's a regular archetype for antipaladin, although it counts as both for feat prerequisites and favored class. also, I don't know the "official"ruling on it, but I don't allow an MCA to multiclass with it's listed secondary class.

I see. That makes sense. Thanks for the help!

Forgive me if this has already been asked, I've done some digging and haven't been able to find an answer.

I stumbled upon the multiclass archetypes and the party I am GMing for found that this concept would be a lot cooler than the standard multiclassing. What I have not figured out, however, was how to actually apply the multiclass archetype.

While the Divine Champions pdf addresses the base class and such, we've come up with some questions.

Does the character have to multiclass, using pathfinder rules to be 1/1 in the primary and secondary class of the archetype? i.e. to become a Blackguard Assassin would the character have to be a first level Antipaladin, and Rogue, with Antipaladin as the favored class? Or does the multiclass archetype just act as a normal archetype for the class, while replacing some Antipaladin mechanics with rogue mechanics? An example for this would be the Antipaladin becoming the Blackguard Assassin at level 2, when the sneak attack mechanic comes into play.
