[QUOTE="aco175, post: 8242619, member: 27385"] I do not play PF, but can see where they were going with XP for threats that become less of a treat. At first it appears to be more recordkeeping for the DM. Another thought is to where it fits with a sandbox and if 'farming' the lower threats for XP is worth it- or even happens. As the DM, I would likely add challenge to the orcs to make them a challenge again if the PCs skipped them at the lower level. Does the PF2 system have something else that XP needed is 2000 (or whatever) to gain level 3? The XP can come from a bunch of orcs, but the game is saying that at some point the orcs are worth less, since the threat is less. By giving the full XP is the game math going to be skewed? Is this at 3rd, 5th, 10th level? I would think that keeping the full XP is not a problem. Another thought is the game and players. If they are having fun and you are fine with it, then it is ok. At some point, my players would grow tired with killing orcs and look for the orc chief, or orc/ogre crossbreeds to gain more XP. I would add giants and beasts that they keep as pets to give out more XP. I guess I would not worry that much about it. [/QUOTE]
