It always works. Do the math.No. Not one level higher. Only when mutliclassing and only every other level.

Half casters only advance every other level. So the casting ability of a 4th level ranger is exactly the same as a 5th level ranger. So, whist it is true that a 4th level artificer has the same casting ability as a 4th level ranger, it is also true that they have the same casting ability as a 5th level ranger. I.e ranger level +1, as I stated.o if your artificer/ranger/paladin level is even, you don't round at all, so you get the same multiclass spellcaster level.

It's a bit tricky for me to type some symbols (such as modulus), but it's ECL = mod((L+1)/2); ECL is the effective caster level, L is the artificer's level.
Just because 'hey, who doesn't love a pedant?', the modulo operator is typically written as %.Half casters only advance every other level.

A vertical line on either side is what I learned.Just because 'hey, who doesn't love a pedant?', the modulo operator is typically written as %.
That is the notation for absolute value... which is sometimes called modulus. You are using a modulo operator in the sense of obtaining a remainder when X is divided by a modulus Y.A vertical line on either side is what I learned.
You are probably right - I teach maths by default, my main subject is physics (and to be honest I scraped through the maths modules!)That is the notation for absolute value... which is sometimes called modulus.

I wasn't trying to give you a hard time! I'm a software engineer. I have (very infrequently) have made use of the modulo operator (which, as I was saying earlier, is usually written as % in the programming languages I frequent) so have inadvertently become aware of the intricacies of the term 'modulus' (although I'm sure some actual mathematician will come along and out-pedant/correct me on some of the finer points!).You are probably right - I teach maths by default, my main subject is physics (and to be honest I scraped through the maths modules!)
My maths isn't as bad as my chemistry though, and I have to teach that too!
