The classic method for creating a gestalt character
allows you to begin with two classes which
advance equally as you gain levels. This method
follows all of the rules laid out above.

Tiered Gestalt
A tiered gestalt character starts out as a single
class. At some point during play, you acquire a
second class and begin progressing as a gestalt
character. In this variation, your first class will
always be a set number of levels ahead of your
second class. Typically, under this method of
creating gestalt characters, you gain a second
class when you enter a predetermined tier of play.
