    Just out of curiosity, does anybody know how much xp a character could theoretically get by doing every possible quest, choosing the most rewarding options, etc.?

    In other words, what is the total xp available in the game? Never mind the xp cap, of course.

    Seems a little insane to try to calculate this, but hey, stranger things have happened!

    Infinite, you can endless sleep until monster appear and in ToB in the Cave of Sendai is a place where you can get unlimited experience since a script is used to generate countless enemies unless you advance in the cave... ( you better have the +1 immunity from the tears of bhaal here, or you wont make it to infinity :p )

    Probably around 30-40 million. Encounters included, the numbers can be infinite as previously said.

    If you play through normally it will at around 40 million, however you can easily get past the cap with a bit of ingenuity and if you really want you can hit 48 million easily enough.

    Well, it's settled then! "Bless me for being an idiot" for forgetting the random spawns!

    However, is there a certain point where the game will no longer accept extra xp? Similar to the 65550 (IIRC) item limit for containers?

    Without xp cap -1 is the highest exp level. But wat -1 does is take characters up to level 40, regardless of class. Thus a fighter gets no extra level ups after 8 million with xp cap off, but a wizard does. So if you have an f/m/t normally he would max out without cap at 40/31/40, however with -1 exp he maxes out at 40/40/40.

    Actually, technically, with an XP cap an F/M/T would max out at 18/17/22. And the reason is because the XP cap is 8 million TOTAL XP. So you get roughly 2.67 million in each class. That is the levels you get with an XP cap.
