    [​IMG] Is it that if I put two nonfavoured classes for a certain race, I will have to level him or her evenly to avoid penalties. :confused:

    Thier levels would have to be within one level of each other yes, unless one of them was their favored class. If you plan to have thier levels different, use a human.

    On the other hand in most cases of exotic races their favourite class is the best option so multiclass is not a problem
    Dont forget also that sometimes male or female non human chars have different favorite class.

    And for all-class-are-favorite races is the class with highest level accounted as "favorite".

    For example:
    • for human C1-L3, C2-L4, C3-L10 is C3 accounted for favorite class and this character has no exp penalty because C1 and C2 have level difference less than 2
    • for human C1-L3, C2-L9, C3-L10 is C10 accounted for favorite and this character HAS an exp penalty, because C1 and C2 have level difference greater (or equal) to 2
    • for tiefling C1-L3, C2-L9, Rogue-L10 is Rouge favorite class and this character HAS an exp penalty because C1 and C2 have level difference greater (or equal) to 2
    • for tiefling C1-L3, C2-L4, Rogue-L10 is Rouge favorite class and this character has no exp penalty because C1 and C2 have level difference less than 2
    • for tiefling Rouge-L3, C2-L9, C3-L10 is Rouge favorite class and this character has no exp penalty because C2 and C3 have level difference less than 2
    This means, that in some combinations all-classes-are-favorite race is not better then a race with specific favorite class and player should plan character development and choose his/her race accordingly or suffer the exp penalty.

    Your welcome Skywind.

    To administrators: I don't know, if you get upset with this - this post has no information regardless IWDII. But it is polite to post this. Or should I use PM instead a normal post for this ? (Just a matter of role playing in real life)
