    At a certain level, your HP/level evens off and the CON bonuses stop. Warriors get 3 HP/level for level 10 and beyond, priests get 2 HP/level for level 10 and beyond, rogues get 2 HP/level for level 11 and beyond, and wizards get 1 HP/level for level 11 and beyond. It's part of the 2e HP system, designed to prevent higher level characters from getting ridiculous amounts of HP.

    That is the beauty of 2e, it is different than 3e as Fel explained it, your warriors can never have 300+ HPs. :p

    Also if you play with Core AD&D rules there's no max HP's on level up. You should check the tables in BG2 manual.
