Message: <blockquote data-quote="Len" data-source="post: 2399771" data-attributes="member: 14349">My character was killed and reincarnated as a halfling. So I've changed from a human ranger 6/fighter 2 to a halfling ranger 6/fighter 1. This means that I'll be getting 20% less XP from now on.The character is a ranger archer. I'm taking a few levels of fighter for the extra feats (i.e. Weapon Specialization) but I like the 3.5 ranger and planned to continue in that class. I don't want to change that (i.e. take more levels of fighter) just because I turned into a halfling. On the other hand, I don't want my character to be permanently gimped.So I have a few questions.1. What did you do when you were confronted with a 20% XP penalty after reincarnation?2. How far behind the other PCs will my character be? My DM uses the 3.5 method of calculating XP, so lower level characters get more XP. That will partially offset the 20% penalty. So I'm guessing I'll usually be 1 level behind the others. (I figure I'd fall 2 levels behind if I was getting the same XP as everyone else.)3. How crappy is it to always be a level behind the other PCs?</blockquote>
