    As I had ToB installed when I finished SoA, it throws you straight into it without pause. On first arriving in the pocket plane, you get the opportunity to summon any NPCs from SoA that you want. After going through so much with the party I already had, I didn't summon anyone...only character worth trading for really is Sarevok. Thing is the levels the NPCs were at when arriving there was much higher than anyone else you could summon...am I wrong on this? Who, if anyone, did you drop from your party and summon in their place and why? After developing the NPCs and their proficiencies it would have been a shame to lose them....plus there's romances...
    And I didn't even get the chance of summoning a few characters...has anyone else done this...in SoA (don't ask, I was bored and thought it would be good for my convenience!) I took all the NPCs who I didn't much want to use to my stronghold (planar sphere, slums) and dumped them, telling them to wait, so that they were all right there if I ever wanted them. I never used them and should really have said "go to the copper coronet"...in ToB I had no choice to summon those ones I'd asked to wait there, only the ones I never spoke to...strange.

    Well, they would be a higher level than the ones you had before since you wee playing with ToB installed, thus giving you higher experience than normal. I guess this was meant for if you didn't play SoA with ToB installed.

    I belive that they are also at higher level as it is posible to start a game in TOB and as such having them be at their SOA base levels would do bad things to game balance. So they opted to give them a TOB min XP level and have people already in party overide that.
