[QUOTE="drnuncheon, post: 993335, member: 96"] Wow. What an incredibly inaccurate analogy. First of all, cohorts get a [b]half[/b] share of XP. I don't know where the 2000 XP figure came from, unless the guy took Leadership twice. Second, you're implying that the other PC gets full use out of the "extra XP' that he gets for having a cohort - which is of course not true. Nice try at a scare tactic though - your numbers above do make it look like 'oh my god the guy with leadership is getting so much more than me!' Third, try this on for size: Your party of four 6th-level adventurers needs a cleric, so they go out and hire an NPC (a 5th level cleric). They come across 5000 xp, and each one gets 1000 xp. My party of four 6th-level adventurers needs a cleric, so I take leadership and get a cleric cohort (5th level). We come across 5000 xp. Everyone gets 1111 xp, except for the cohort, who gets 555. Hold on a second...everyone gets [b]more XP[/b], and the rest of these jokers didn't even pay a feat? How fair is [i]that[/i]? J [/QUOTE]
