Experience formular

Each time a character levels they need 1000xp times their current level to advance. So a first level character needs (1*1000=1000). A second level character needs (2*1000=2000, total of 3000). A third level character needs (3*1000=3000, total of 6000). It keeps going that way ad infinitum.

Of course, you could just use the charts in the PHB/SRD...
 

Define 'easy'. :)

The formula to get level from experience points is:
Level = 0.5 + ((XP/500)+.25)^-0.5, rounded down to the next integer.

Oh, and Krelios, there aren't XP charts in the SRD ...
 

Oh, I forgot: Welcome to the boards.

The pattern is clear, Krelios. I suspect that we're talking about something like 387.234 XP, and applying the pattern again and again can become tiresome. But of course, you're right: A quick look to the tables in the books will give you the correct answer. Or, failing that, use the formular options of Excel (or whatever you use), and make a table up to level 1000 or so.

Huh, you're right... Sorry for the misleading information.
 

That Formular, does not do it for me :)

Btw: I want to use it in a excel sheet to automatically calculate my current Level based on XP gained

Just do a VLOOKUP. Create a table with the level in one column and the XP needed in the other. Than point your cell to that table. Based upon, XP in cell * look in the table and populate the level in cell *.
