Probably to account for higher level PCs ability to take on increasingly higher level monsters (CRs go to 30!) thanks to a multiplier effect.Hmm, assuming a party with 4 PCs, here's a comparison of Medium difficulty encounter XP (for the party) vs. XP for facing one equal level monster.Level Encounter : Monster how different monster XP value isAPPRENTICELevel 1 200 : 200 encounter = monsterLevel 4 1,000 : 1,100 monster +100Net +100HEROICLevel 5 2,000 : 1,800 monster -200Level 10 4,800 : 5,900 monster +1,100Net +1,300PARAGONLevel 11 6,400 : 7,200 monster +800Level 16 12,800 : 15,000 monster +2,200Net +1,400EPICLevel 17 15,400: 15,600 monster +600Level 20 22,800 : 25,000 monster +2,200Net +1,600EDIT: I would have expected Level 5 to be +200 or 400, and for net values for Levels 11 and 17 to be reversed! That way you'd see an increasing baseline monster threat as the PCs level. Weird. Weird. Weird.</blockquote>
