Best Multiclass Combos (APG and Magus with other Core or Base classes) and Why?


Advice


I'm looking for some community imput to help me develop my Multiclass Archetypes for the APG and Magus classes. I'm curious what everyone thinks are the best multiclass combos for APG Base Classes (inc. Magus and Gunslinger) with other Core or Base classes. Please let me know why they work so well too. Thankyou!!


Anyone?


This thread might help you in the matter perhaps.

Magus and Monk. I made an Iron Monk 4/Quarterstaff Magus-Hexcrafter 8 for a game I'm going to be playing in... Full-round action gets me a quarterstaff+18/+13 (1d6+11 plus 1d6 fire and 1d6 electricity), a stunning fist (DC 21)+14 (1d8+8) and a spell. And 32 AC.

Magus 7, cleric 3, mystic theurge 10

Silver Crusade

Magus/bard - or opposite. Blade singer !

The Exchange

I love anything multiclassed with rogue. Lots of skill points and class skills, sneak attack (even at 1d6) is a nice situational boost, and trapfinding is always useful. The only exceptions are full casters that focus on spells, such as wizards or sorcerers. Note that some full casters, notably cleric and druid, are not always casting focused and can use the rogue levels.

Scarab Sages

Monk/Empyreal bloodline sorcerer looks really workable.
interesting monk archtypes to use in the combo would include Zen Archer and Qinggong monk.


To further maximize a WIS based Monk/Empyreal Sorcerer, consider adding a level of Inquisitor. Spells are also WIS based. Choose the Conversion Inquision (WIS replaces CHA for Bluff,Diplomacy, and Intimidate)and the Heretic Archtype (add WIS to Bluff and Stealth in addition to normal modifiers).


Barbarian/ cleric. Growth sub domain for swift enlarge + rage + vital strike + negative energy channel. One of my favs.

Paladin /ninja at a 2:1 ratio is very nice. Vanish + smite + SA is pretty nice. Plays more as a "stealth paladin" than a "holy ninja".

Paladin/ ninja at a 1:2 ratio can also work. This is the "holy ninja" approach, more of a skirmisher than the "stealth tank"

Ranger/ grey warden isn't a multicast, but it's a solid PrC choice to add SA, bane weapon, and judgements to you fav enemy boosts. He is my "Judge Dredd" build.
