08-24-07, 05:40 PM I've seen some interest in this so I cobbled together a max xp (high risk) for min TU so you can start this year.

Assuming new character, 0 xp, no deaths.

(Running TU Total)Mod/Char xp before/after/Char level after

(2)Any Regional 2 round intro 0/900/1
(7)Scourge of the Howling Horde/900/2025/2
(14)Fane of the Drow/2025/4385/3
(20)Barrow of the Forgotten King, Part 1 only/4385/6450/4
(52*)Red Hand of Doom Parts 1-5/6450/33027/8
*The borrowed TU's go poof so it doesn't matter.
I did this pretty quick so not responsible for math errors or what not.

Hope this helps all of us 'just started LG' people...

I'm fairly certain that you can only borrow TUs for the last chapter of Red Hand. The 43 TUs you used up getting to Red Hand level is way over that limit. In order to play Chapters I-IV of Red Hand of Doom, you'd need a minimum of 51-16 = 35 TUs remaining for 2007.

Also, please don't post experience gain totals for modules.

08-26-07, 08:25 AM I can't think of a term I could want to borrow less from the MMO world than "power levelling". I get that you want to open up higher level content and this period in LG may be the only time there might be much excuse for it but, the whole mentality of rushing up to some build level really sells the lower end game short and puts priorities on amassing xp, loot and getting beyond early challenges as opposed to playing the game well and enjoyably.

08-26-07, 11:48 AM I think there is some merit to this suggestion. With wotc freely admitting that the "green band" where math works well is 7 to 14 I wouldn't be opposed to getting my new beguiler up to that level range quickly ratter than slogging it thought and intermiable number of apl 2 mods just to be a 3rd level. Seems more like maximizing the fun rather than anything else.
