[QUOTE="Grundar, post: 1603058, member: 18997"] Ugh, I just found out that creatures with more than 1HD don't get a feat when gaining their first class level.. The thri-kreen already has an extra feat due to racial HD. They get deflect arrows at ECL1, then another feat at ECL3. So the next feat should come in at ECL6 which is class level 2.. :( Anyway heres some more data to digest, showing the four different level progressions with LA+1, LA+1 with buyoff, LA+2, LA+2 with buyoff.. I'm thinking its probably better to get rid of the LA if i'm planning to go epic. It saves some xp in the long run. The numbers right before the class levels are the ECL values of my character at that class level. I think i have it all correct, but please let me know if it isn't.
