* Cavalryman and Sky Raider or Air Sailor
* Archer and Swordmaster
* Josh makes a good case for Weaponsmith and Archer
* (Josh misspeaks and says Archer/Swordmaster in his discussion.)
* Swordmaster and Thief
* Josh argues that Thief is a tough second Discipline
* Some likely unconsidered but good combinations
* Beastmaster and Cavalryman or Warrior
* Beastmaster and Scout
* The order you learn Disciplines can make a notable difference
* Magician combinations
* Elementalist and Weaponsmith
* Cost of learning spells can make it more difficult
* Expanded questor and path rules reduce the need for multiple Disciplines
