Drow Experience pts?

[sineater]

What are the disadvantages of being a Drow experience wise?

You mean the ecl? I think it's either +2 or +3. Instead of needing 1000 xp to go from first to second level, you would need 3000xp or 4000xp depending on what the ecl is.

Drow are EL +2, so Experience requiresments for levelling are::

LEVEL ... Normal .......... Drow ...... Difference
1 .................... 0 ........ 3,000 ............. 3,000
2 ............. 1,000 ........ 6,000 ............. 5,000
3 ............. 3,000 ...... 10,000 ............. 7,000
4 ............. 6,000 ...... 15,000 ............. 9,000
5 ........... 10,000 ...... 21,000 ........... 11,000
6 ........... 15,000 ...... 28,000 ........... 13,000

So as you can see, each level "costs" more for Drow, or other EL-adjusted races, by a (marginally) wider and wider gap. In other words, the Drow, or any other EL +2 race, should consistently be 1 or 2 levels behind an "EL+0" character, a la the standard PHB races.
