    Default Multiclassed Arcane channeling

    Would a multiclass duskblade wizard be able to channel his wizard spells?

    No, they have different spell lists so I don't think so. Otherwise people would take a few levels of Duskblade and go Wizard the rest for the power.

    Yes you can, but you won't be able to wear armour and ignore the ASF from another class's spells. As for above, it costs 3 levels, and isn't very powerful (You gain weapon damage to touch spell in return for hitting regular AC). Gestalt on the other hand...

    For a gestalt build this is viable, for wizard/duskblade, not so much. Duskblade has full BAB where wizard only has 1/2 BAB making your attacks unlikely to hit. Your d4 hit points also won't make you an ideal candidate for front line fighting.

    Well, since most of the other duskblade abilities go out of their way to say that they can only be used with duskblade spells, but arcane channeling doesn't say that, I think you have a pretty good case.

    But as has been mentioned, arcane spell failure could be a problem. Or you could be a battle sorcerer, or splash a level of spellthief and grab master spellthief, or a level of fighter and use the armored mage ACF from complete mage.... add in practiced spellcaster and I'm willing to bet it would have potential.
