Multiclassing Mystic / Technomancer


Advice


Hi, I was wondering if someone could help. i have a character with 2 levels in Mystic and 3 in Technomancer. When it comes to working out spells per day or known spells. Do you take the greater number or add them together?
its just if i add them together its 9 1st lvl spells per day i can cast not including other daily spells.


You have two separate pools of spells.

You know three first spells from the mystic list. You have your 2 mystic spells per day plus bonus spells from a high wisdom.

And then you know four first level spells from the technomancer list. You have 3 technomancer spells per day plus bonus spells from high intelligence.

The only way that this multiclassing combination benefits the character is in terms of caster level when he is casting a spell from either class. In those cases, his caster level would be 5th (sum of Mystic and Technomancer levels).

But that combined caster level has no effects on spells known or spells per day.

For reference, combining two caster classes is not recommended because it slows your access to higher level spells, and you'll find your offensive spells getting resisted frequently.

In general, multiclassing past a 1 level dip is rarely worth it.

I agree that multiclassing a caster with a caster tends to not be a good idea.

What about a mystic with Technomantic Dabbler?

If there's a good first level spell that you really want it's okay.

I'm not sure if it lets you use technomancer spell gems though.

You may find a 2 level dip useful if there is a 2nd-level archetype ability you want (such as the limited telepathy from phrenic adept or the Armor Mastery from star knight), but you don't want to lose any other normal class features. This is especially useful if you were already dipping a level, such as a level in soldier for Blitz style (take a 2nd level in soldier (star knight) for Armor Mastery instead of the bonus feat).

Comprehend languages, magic missile, or supercharge weapon are often useful 1st-level spells for a mystic to pick up. The two unlimited use 0-level spells (like mending and transfer charge; or just expanding your selection to include two of detect affliction, detect magic, psychokinetic hand, telepathic message, and token spell that you couldn't "afford" to take with your mystic spells known) aren't bad, either.
