[QUOTE="evilbob, post: 5295123, member: 9789"] Ok so you don't take the new level into account for time gold, just the existing level? I definitely did not get that. And no - only 390 XP is needed to level of the 848. So I'll be 458 into level 4. So wait - you're saying I'd get time gold for 390 XP at level 3 and 458 at level 4? Oh jees - I like math and even I think this is getting complicated. So 390/125 = 3 months (rounded down) at 127 g / mo = 381 gold, plus 458/145 = 3 months (rounded down) at 175 g / mo = 525, which totaled is 381+525 = 906 gold. So my final boost would be 848 XP and 906 gold? Ok, so there has got to be a better way. :) If we're really concerned with people gaining unfair amounts of cash then this is a way to be very precise, but I'd say otherwise just do something simple and forget about it. The entire reward system we have is so loose anyway (since it's all based on whatever your current DM decides) that +/- a bit of gold doesn't seem like it could possibly make a difference. Then again, this situation clearly doesn't come up very often so it may not be worth the effort to hash out something new just for a few exceptions. Maybe it's time to propose a parcel system like LEB? It's certainly a whole lot less paperwork. [/QUOTE]
