The CRB includes the following entry on multiclassing:
Multiclassing
"Instead of gaining the abilities granted by the next level in your character's current class, he can instead gain the 1st-level abilities of a new class, adding all of those abilities to his existing ones. This is known as “multiclassing.”
"For example, let's say a 5th-level fighter decides to dabble in the arcane arts, and adds one level of wizard when he advances to 6th level. Such a character would have the powers and abilities of both a 5th-level fighter and a 1st-level wizard, but would still be considered a 6th-level character. (His class levels would be 5th and 1st, but his total character level is 6th.) He keeps all of his bonus feats gained from 5 levels of fighter, but can now also cast 1st-level spells and picks an arcane school. He adds all of the hit points, base attack bonuses, and saving throw bonuses from a 1st-level wizard on top of those gained from being a 5th-level fighter."
So my questions is: are you entitled to everything associated with a first-level character, or only certain first level things?
My main question deals with feats. Are 1st level feats something that apply to first level characters or first level classes.
A first-level human character is entitled to two feats minimum. Let's say I have 1 level of figther and 1 of rogue. I have heard that I would still have three feats total (all my first-level figther feats).
Can anyone clarify this for me? Wouldn't a first-level rogue be entitled to two additional feats, for a total fo five? The out may simply be that feats refer to overall character level, not class levels. I'm not sure.
Thanks!
