Message: <blockquote data-quote="Traveon Wyvernspur" data-source="post: 5912032" data-attributes="member: 73201">I've personally done experience in many different ways. The last campaign I DM'd was a 4E game and I got rid of experience all together and leveled them up every 2-3 sessions. I've done the exact experience per 2E, 3.x, and Pathfinder as well.I'm a currently a player and we are using a more simplified system for experience for Pathfinder. I think the DM grabbed it from another website and we seem to like it just fine.Here's what our house-rules document states:[FONT=&quot]Experience[/FONT]   [FONT=&quot]a.       [/FONT][FONT=&quot]At SLOW progression, each level requires 44 experience points.At NORMAL progression, each level requires 30 experience points.At FAST progression, each level requires 20 experience points.[/FONT]  [FONT=&quot]b.      [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Characters receive 1 experience point for: overcoming an easy battle; escaping from a difficult battle or boss battle; overcoming a non-combat challenge such as a trap, or diplomatic negotiation; other misc tasks the GM would like to offer rewards for.[/FONT]  [FONT=&quot]c.       [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Characters receive 2 experience points for: overcoming an appropriately leveled combat encounter.[/FONT]  [FONT=&quot]d.      [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Characters receive 3 experience points for: overcoming a very difficult encounter or boss battle, or completing a major task such as saving a kingdom.[/FONT]  In our game we are going with the "normal" progression and average 4-6 experience points per game which should average out to a level every 4-6 sessions and we game twice a month for a 6 hour block each time. I do an ongoing journal for the game, mostly for myself, but my DM gives me an additional experience point when I do the journal entries. Everyone can earn the extra point if they want with an entry of some sort - even random musings or other RP'ish things, but not everyone does. It's just a little added incentive for me to keep it up. I might outpace the others a little bit, but it won't be overly much.</blockquote>
