Subject: Hell Levels explained (Exp formula spoiler)


EXP FORMULA

The formula for the amount of experience to complete a level is as follows:
Total XP to complete a level = L * L * L * C * R
Where:
L = Level being completed
C = Level constant
R = Race/Class constant

Level Constants are:
lvls, constant
1-29, 10
30-34, 11
35-39, 12
40-44, 13
45-50, 14

Some Race/Class Constants are:
90 Human/Warrior, DE/Warrior
125 Human/Bard, Human/Ranger, Human/Paladin, Dwarf/Paladin
168 Troll/SK
===================================

The Hell Levels are caused by the Level Constant. At levels 30, 35, 40 and
45, the Constant increases. It's not readily apparent how much the constant
affects the formula until you look at the graph (link below).

Here you can view the Exp Table for various Race/Class combos.

I've shown this in a graphical chart for the numerically impaired:
