[QUOTE="fissionessence, post: 4444372, member: 63357"] It would go away, because the 1st-level character's xp would go up quickly and he or should would catch up relatively fast; hopefully the player's pace of learning would be able to keep up. Note that an equal share of XP to a lower-level character is worth much much more than to the other party members. I personally like this system a lot. I'm also an on-and-off CoX player, so I may be biased :) I'm not sure when I'd use it, though. I was thinking that adding characters or replacing dead ones would result in me just allowing the new character to be [party level - 1] to start. However, I do have one player who can't seem to grasp all of his powers and the combat rules, so perhaps if he were to replace a character, or else a new player unfamiliar with the rules were to join, I'd ask them to start at level 1 with this system in place. ~ [/QUOTE]
