[QUOTE="Eolin, post: 1411177, member: 13266"] Let me interpret myself ... "My notes say we got 21k, the game master says it was 39, and judging from how many I've got and how many i must have had then, it was between 23000 and 34000. So guys, do i owe myself 5000 EP, or should we have gotten less/more/what?" Since the GM said 39 and I'd written down somewhere between 23k and 34k, i was going to err on the side of caution and have it be another 5k -- the minimun difference between where i was and where i am now. As for why it wasn't a TPK ... The other party member is a ftr 1/forsaker 11 (extrapolation, i know, not by the RAW) with the Vow of Poverty feat. The game is in Kalamar, where Lightning Reflexes is a fighter bonus feat. With all the bonuses his con right now is around 30, and his AC is around 40. My poor cleric had destruction cast on him in the first round after disabling one of the four guys with Greater Command. I could only have succeeded on a nat20, and didn't make that -- just a 15. Apparently I'll be coming back as a risen martyr. Even without me, our super tank friend destroyed the bad guys ... but got feebleminded. Since he's feebleminded, he doesn't know where the temple of our god is and so can't exactly get me Res'd, hence the need for the Risen Martyr class. Squire James seems to be saying the EP rules work like i thought they did -- that we're EL 9. Everybody else is saying EL 11 and the bonus is that you get twice the EP. Also, I was pretty sure that since we fought them a the same time, we looked at the CR of the encounter -- by which since it was 4 CR 14, each double adds +2 to the CR and we get CR 18. What do the RAW say? Hope that clarifies the questions and what happened for those interested. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
