I am building a multi-class 12/Fighter 6/Ranger 2/Monk. I took the 2 monk levels first and then the fighter levels. I am approaching the time that I will take my Ranger levels.

Here is the question?

I will get TWF and ITWF for free from the Ranger levels. I already took those feats with fighter. I have heard 10 different opinions on how this mechanic works and I need the real scoop.

Do I need to drop TWF and ITWF before taking level 2 Ranger (and later 6 Ranger for ITWF) so that the toon doesn't bug and lose feats? I have been told everthing from I do not, and I will get a message for a free feat respecs to I need to drop everything even related i.e. OTWF, TWD, and ITWF AND TWF before taking my 2nd level of Ranger, or it will bug.

There is obviously a lot of time that goes into building toons and the last thing I want is to get to level 15, take my 2nd level of ranger and find out that there was some verrrrrrry specific way I needed to do my feats and I totally gimped my toon.

A developers input would ROCK but I would like to hear from anyone else who may have the same build.

Thanks a billion!
