Slayer + Unchained Rogue multiclass / dips


Rules Questions

Grand Lodge

So I've come across an issue that needs clarification for myself and my DM.

I started as a Slayer (Bounty Hunter) for first level and then multiclassed into Unchained Rogue then back to slayer for the 2nd level, then the rest is planned to be Rogue.

He's (The DM stated) saying that Hybrid classes and parent classes cannot multiclass, I did some digging myself found the ruling under Hybrid classes but I wanted more clarification as I couldn't find anything saying they can't combine.

Thanks for your time

In the playtest version of Advanced Class Guide, a character couldn't take levels in a hybrid class and either of its parent classes. This restriction was dropped in the final version, with the following warning:

PRD wrote:
Parent Classes: Each of the following classes draws upon two classes to form the basis of its theme. While a character can multiclass with these parent classes, doing so usually results in redundant abilities. Such abilities don't stack unless specified. If a class feature allows the character to make a one-time choice (such as a bloodline), that choice must match similar choices made by the parent classes and vice-versa (such as selecting the same bloodline).


Also, note that sneak attack from both classes stacks since sneak attack is worded additively (+1d6 sneak attack).
