OOC - The Place to Let It All Out!

[Rex]

I have 1,046 xp. But I have been fighting ghouls, killing several by myself. Gary, have you been giving out xp together or individually? If together I would expect us to be the same, otherwise not. I don't care either way and am fine if everyone levels together.

[hedgeknight]

for 2nd ed it says you go up a level every 1000xp, its weird, its says every level you reach 1000 and clear your xp

whats our xp total?

I much prefer the rules for Pathfinder 1E...2E is just...a bit much.
I don't understand the clear your xp thing...unless xp is not important? So, why keep it if you level up after 1000 pts? I don't know > this doesn't make a lot of sense to me. And I've already had 2 cups of coffee!

Bel, you would know > what are the major differences in Pathfinder 1E over 2E?

I've done both...and that's my fault for allowing you guys to sandbox it in town. I jest here. I have no issues with giving out individual XP or group XP, and I love side quests. I'm trying to level out XP, but it's a challenge...especially when I don't understand the flipping rules about how to configure it.

I think the thought on clearing xp is so you never have large numbers to deal with. I have seen that as a complaint with older editions of D&D in online forums. For me that would require special circumstances to be a legit complaint.

How it looks to me is you could just chart it so that each level needs 1000xp x current level to reach the next level. So 2nd level needs 1000, 3rd needs 2000 etc. Then don't bother clearing them.

I am not familiar enough with how the system awards xp to know but at first glance it looks like it levels a lot faster then other editions unless there is some sort of mechanic like divide xp/level before rewarding.

It's either what Rex suggests or you could go the route of 5e D&D and just do milestone leveling. You just basically tell us when we have hit level 2 and so forth.

Just like items and such, you should be keeping track of your XP.
I haven't given out a ton so far, but that will increase as you face more difficult scenarios.
Right now, it seems Khawla is ahead of you; which is not a bad thing since she is a priest. More healing, the better, right?

Im good with the GM saying we level.

I appreciate that. For now, let's just keep on with XP; make sure you are taking notes in your character sheet or in your personal threads.

Oh my, you're in trouble.

I have been known to occasionally miss something with character tracking, but xp has never been the thing I missed, LOL.

[GreyWolfVT]

I went back through the XP posts and didn't come up differently so I figure it was something extra earned in private. Not a big deal I just thought i missed something.

People might multiple, trying to cover bases.

So I will be going into surgery tomorrow (Friday). Its a 2-3 hour surgery and 2-3 days in the hosp with 3-5 weeks off work. Please npc me appropriately until I am more coherent.
