Since Tome of Battle only ever says that you simply go ahead and add prestige class levels in full to initiator level, this has been interpreted, universally that I have seen, to simply do exactly that: add on to any and all initiator levels you have. Initiator level and your highest-level maneuvers known. Of nine levels to your initiator level to determine your total Master of the nine simply repeats what was said on page 39: Note that you choose which existing class gets the new maneuvers known or readied, not the initiator level. If you have levels in two or more martial adept standardĬlasses (for example, you are a multiclass swordsage/warblade), you must decide to which of your existing martialĪdept classes the new maneuvers known or maneuvers Readying and recovering maneuvers that you previously Swordsage, or warblade), you retain the same method for If you have levels in a martial adept standard class (crusader, Prestige Classes Advancing Martial Progression Martial Adepts It does not directly address initiator level, however. The mention in the prestige class section defines how learning maneuvers and getting more maneuvers readied works. See the prestige class descriptions in Chapter 5 for details.Ĭlearly, the Crusader 7/Swordsage 5 example is quite similar to your Swordsage 13/Warblade 2, so clearly at 15th level you had a swordsage IL of 14 (13 + ½×2) and a warblade IL of 8 (½×13 + 2).Īs it says right there at the end, prestige classes are a little different, mostly in that “you add the full prestige class level to your martial adept level to determine your initiator level.” This means the five levels of master of the nine counts for both swordsage and warblade, for ILs of 19 and 13, respectively.

They are in martial adept classes or other classes. This process applies to all of a character’s levels, whether ![]() Initiator level is 8th, allowing him to take 4th-level sword.

Martial base classes each have their own separate initiator level, just as spellcasting classes have their own separate caster levels, psionic classes have their own separate manifester levels, and so on.
