ECL

XP Calculation

Effective Character Level (ECL) penalties adjust a character's level for the purpose of experience gain, to account for special abilities which give a character an advantage. On Arelith, these penalties come from gifts and subrace bonuses.
If a level 13 character has an ECL adjustment of +2, then his or her Effective Character Level is 15.

ECL XP adjustments are calculated as follows, and rounded down: (Level / ECL) x XP

Example:
A level 15 character receives 20xp for killing a NPC.
A level 15 character with +2 ECL receives (15 / 17) x 20XP = 17XP

As shown in the tables below, ECL also affects XP gains from roleplay bonus.

ECL and Parties

ECL only affects individual XP gain. For the purpose of party XP calculation, the level on a character's sheet is used, and individual XP gain is adjusted afterward.

Partying/traveling with a character that has ECL will not reduce XP gain.
