[QUOTE="babinro, post: 4876076, member: 67482"] I've never actually run a 4E campaign following the exact rules for level gain. I tend to create an adventure and simply tell the PC's they've gained a level when its done. Typically the adventure spans about 4-6 encounters depending on how the approach it...which is more or less x2 rate of experience. Since no spells or powers have an XP penalty associated with it, I see no reason to provide strict XP numbers at this point. On a side note...there aren't that many monsters to choose from for many of the levels, so setting up 10 or so encounters required to fill a level without making monsters repetitive can be challenging (especially if you want to keep custom enemies to a minimum) As for starting at higher levels...we typically start around levels 3-5...simply because there are more monster/trap options to work with. I've had no problem with that. Never started a game in higher up levels though [/QUOTE]
