09-30-07, 04:37 PM		I see a lot of people talking about ECL ("... might be worth ECL+1 for instance (a first level character cannot advance until he acquires enough XP to qualify him for third level...)") but I don't know what it stands for.

Also I get the gist that it has something to do with "if something benefits you you get +X ECL, if it hurts you, you get -X ECL", but how do you determine what the X variable is? Is there a chart for that or something?

I'm VERY interested in understanding this as I'm in the process of making my own campaign setting and would like to make it as balanced as possible.

Thanks!
