I personally recomend against doing a Gestalt campaign unless all players and the GM are experienced with 5e and are comfortable with all rules used at the table. (Homebrew modifications will be towards the bottom, so feel free to ignore those unless you have looked at my "Homebrew rule compendium document, or are playing in one of my games).Īs a final note, this will result in much more complicated characters due to having multiple fully leveled classes, and that is before the mess that multi-classing gestalt charactrs can bring to the table. As well as a few of the homebrew rules I routinely use. In addition to all that, I will endevor to cover some of the more common variant rules which I am familiar with. (Although in all honesty I didn't make many changes as the author did a good job overall, I just disagreed with a few finer points). This document aims to take the rules on the DnD wiki, refine them slightly to be more in line with what I believe to be the core design philosophy of 5e, rather than a the more "direct" port from 3rd edition. This document will contain the ruleset for Gestalt character for DnD 5th edition, or at least my take on it as WotC have not given any indication that they will publish anything for Gestalt characters for 5e. From what my looking about has found this is typically reserved for either low player count games (1-3 players, generally 1 or 2, to simulate 3-5 players), or for a high powered/munchkin/epic fantasy/legendary heros esq game.
When boiled down to a single sentence, it would be described as this "A character that simultaneously takes 2 different classes each time they level." Typically this will end up with PC's being stronger/more flexible than their non-gestalt counterparts. Gestalt characters is an idea/ruleset that harkens back to older editions.
