In reality, ECL races are LESS penalized in NWN than they are supposed to be. I don't know, I just read the SRD on it and it appears that the initial "bump" that NWN2 ECL characters require isn't actually in the rules. It's always the XP (not total but new XP) required for the next level ECL. So a level 1 drow should need 3k, not 6k to get to level 2. So the adjustmet of XP based on current XP instead of Level mitigates that to a certain degree.

Hey Meldor.. I took a quick look at the xp script since this situation does seem a bit odd (the gradual xp drop while being the same level). Sadly the xp script looks like it was written by someone with a PHD in statistics from M.I.T. , so I haven't made sense yet of why your XP distribution is like this. It's because the XP gain is based on how much XP the character already has, not on current level. See the little chart I made in the earlier part of this thread. yup.. thats what it looks like in the script to. But I'm not sure if this is a bug or not. It kind of looks like a bug.

If Drow are ECL +2, they should require 6000 xp to gain level 2, as opposed to a ECL +1 race which would require 3000 and an ECL +0 race which would require 1000xp. That's how Pen & Paper 3.5 works, at least
