With the upcoming TWF nerf [resisting urge to nerd rage about this in this thread], I will probably need to reincarnate.

However, reading how this all works, I think I might be pretty screwed.

Currently level 13.

Level Progression (C1=class 1, C2 = class 2, C3 = class 3):

C1(1)
C2(1)
C1(2)
C3(1)
C3(2)
C3(3)
C3(4)
C3(5)
C3(6)
C1(3)
C1(4)
C1(5)
C1(6)

So levels in class-1/class-2/class-3 are 6/1/6

As I understand, it matters what levels you took when.

I basically want to change out Class 3 for another class (say class 4).

Since you can only have 3 classes, and I can't change class 3 in one go, I need to change class 2 (which I actually want to keep), and dump remainder of class 3 in to the new replacement class 4, and *then* reintroduce class 2?

In other words, I have to do this (* indicates a class change):

Reincarnate #1 (+3 LHW)
C1(1)
C4(1)*
C1(2)
C4(2)*
C4(3)*
C3(1)
C3(2)
C3(3)
C3(4)
C1(3)
C1(4)
C1(5)
C1(6)

Reincarnate #2 (+3 LHW)
C1(1)
C4(1)
C1(2)
C4(2)
C4(3)
C4(4)*
C4(5)*
C4(6)*
C3(4)
C1(3)
C1(4)
C1(5)
C1(6)

Reincarnate #3 (+1 LHW)
C1(1)
C4(1)
C1(2)
C4(2)
C4(3)
C4(4)
C4(5)
C4(6)
C2(1)*
C1(3)
C1(4)
C1(5)
C1(6)


So final is Class-1/Class-2/Class-4 as level 6/1/6 (effectively replacing class 3 with class 4)...

Do I understand the process correctly? i.e. is this the best way to go about this conversion?

I read somewhere that in order to add a new class, it *must* be taken at character level 1? Is that true? (then the above wouldn't work, I'd have to do even more swapping around), or can I replace that one level with a new class even though it was taken at character level 2?

If this is how I have to do it, there better be a friggin' serious sale in the DDO Store on LHW +3 to accommodate their nerf that seriously screws with people's builds when it's bloody near impossible for people to change their character to deal with it.

Seems correct to me.

Not from what I know.

Ok thanks.

Also seemed that, given the way it's set up, you really don't want to get something wrong, so trying to make sure I understand the process correctly.
