[QUOTE="Tyranthraxus, post: 6762396, member: 13335"] If you want to do it yourself the best way to do it is to add up all the exp from a Chapter. (I generally just work out the Combat exp). In the case of Chapter 1 of Lost Mine there are 21 Goblins, 3 Wolves 1 Bugbear That gives you a combined exp on offer of 1450 (remember defeating your enemy isnt always killing them) If you divide that by 5 you are looking at 290 exp each.. add in another wolf Which is worth 50 exp and you have 300 each.. so enough for level 2. Now if you are aiming for 7 players, thats 2 more people. 1450 divided by 7 is 207.. so nowhere near enough to get to the next level. I added another 700 exp worth of stuff to get me to 2150 . Its not an exact science by any stretch and sometimes it does seem quite nasty but going from 5-7 players causes the exp division to get ugly. I ncreased the number of Wolves in the Kennel to 6. (so thats 150 right there). I then added a second Bugbear replacing one of the goblins (Yeemik). This Bugbear while a smaller version of Klarg still wants to replace Klarg. (so there is +200 -50). I then had 4 Goblins on the bridge all trying to hide (mostly unsuccessfully). (+150) Finally in the room with Klarg I had 3 more goblins (+150) and 2 more Wolves (+100) That puts me at 2150 exp and divide that by 7 and you get 307 exp and level 2. The last Bugbear fight was brutal I might add! [/QUOTE]
