Rule Clarification for Session 58 (5/27/15):
Good news, everyone! My recollection of the level drain rule was incorrect last night. A check of the DMG shows that a character only loses enough experience points to bring them to the mid-point of the lower level. So, instead of one point above the minimum, Axel is at the midpoint of 4th level (prior to the new experience awards).
That’s 13,001XP instead of 8,001XP, so a rather hefty difference.
I forgot that part too!
Yayyyy. Much less bad ahah
