[QUOTE="Faolyn, post: 9171828, member: 6915329"] I agree, but I honestly don't know if I could answer. I'm with you in that I would prefer levels to be more about customization than power--and we're getting close to that, however, since people want hit points to be reduced and spells to be capped at level 5. So nobody is going to be [I]too [/I]powerful in this game, even if it goes to level 20 or beyond. In Pathfinder 2e, it takes 1,000 XP to go up a level. Once you get that number, you reset it to zero.
