The Ancient Paths (OOC)

<awkward silence cast by a perplexed DM> 675 XP each?

From what I understand about races with ECL, Sabriel will suffer a bit from being ECL +1 right? What would it be? 50% of the XP or 75% of the XP?

 

[hippocrachus]

I'm pretty sure she gets the same amount of XP, but when the others reach Level 4 after acquiring 6000 XP, Sabriel will only be Level 3.

I'm pretty sure she gets the same amount of XP, but when the others reach Level 4 after acquiring 6000 XP, Sabriel will only be Level 3.

I'm presuming that the template has a +1 LA and no racial HD involved, as ECl = character level + racial HD + LA. So yes, at 6000xp, Sabriel would be a 4th level character with only 3 class levels.

Not that it applies here since experience is awarded based on ECL, technically, under 3.5E, higher level characters get less xps than lower level characters for the same encounter. But we don't bother to discriminate in either of my live games, even though the correct method helps characters lagging behind because of character death (it gives them more experience).

Ahh. Ok. Hmmm. As far as Sabriel's feats are concerned, I'm thinking of either developing her celestial heritage or going exalted, depending on how the story goes as well as based on GM approval.

Hee.
I love Excel for calculating XP. Tis your bestus friend.

All:

I'm driving out to Indianna tomorrow for a friend's wedding. I'm going to be gone all weekend. Hold down the fort while I'm out.

Dhes: Hrolf healed 8 HP. Didn't have a d8 at work...

 

[hippocrachus]

No problem, Legildur. Things will probably be slow this week as I get the opening posts ready for the new IC thread.

 

[Legildur]

Okay, I'm back... And I hope that new IC thread doesn't detract from our game!

 

[hippocrachus]

I was in New York this weekend; I'll have a post up this morning to move things along. The new thread won't start until the next time you guys rest...

 

[hippocrachus]

New IC thread will be forthcoming as soon as possible. I'm gonna be busy house-sitting for the next few days, so don't get anxious if we're quiet again
