[QUOTE="Drawmack, post: 397244, member: 4981"] [color=white] I find the xp penalty interesting maybe you could mix the two. Take xp/y where y = ECL - CL +1 and y > 1. That would also make them increase and a proportinatly decreasing rate until they got to the level equal to their ECL. Here is the leveling chart for an ECL 5 PC using this method compared with the standard leveling chart from the PHB. [/color][code][color=white] Level ECL 0 ECL 5 Formula ==== ==== ==== ====== 1 0 0 2 1000 5000 xp/.2 3 3000 13000 xp/.25 + xp needed for previous levels 4 6000 22090 xp/.33 + xp needed for previous levels 5 10000 30090 xp/.5 + xp needed for prefious levels 6 15000 35090 standard increase 7 21000 41090 standard increase 8 28000 48090 standard increase 9 36000 56090 standard increase 10 45000 64090 standard increase [/color][/code][color=white] So this would mean that the party would be just over three levels ahead of an ECL 5 character. Hmm might need a little work but it's a good start. [/color] [/QUOTE]
