Can anyone explain the restrictions for multi-classing? Does the "no more than 2 levels apart" still apply? Perhaps I missed it, but I didn't see any multi-classing rules in the PHB

From what I remember, multi-classing works in a different way this time. It's more to a PC having to sacrifice a power for another class power. It's not really multi-classing actually. But that's how it works. Actually... I'd prefer it this way because multi-classing is quite a pain in the ass sometimes.
