Thanks for the dual class equipment rules. They seem pretty odd but that's the way they are I suppose. One other question though, how do shields figure in? Can dual class mages cast spells while holding one? I assume a druid would be able to use any shield and still have access to their spells and abilities.

I was leaning towards one of the dual class combos but wanted to see if the multi class fighter mage had any big advantages I hadn't though of. The low HP is a pretty big disadvantage though. I have a fighter mage thief right now and am thinking their HP is too low.

I guess I just have to decide between the dual classed druid or mage now. The weapon restrictions for the druid are a definate con. I'm already passing up a lot of neat equpiment because my party has so many weapon restrictions already.
