He is a ECL of 3 because : 1 for being a 1st-level rogue 2 for being a Drow Let's say that drow contracts lycanthropy... and then, become a wererat. A wererat "afflicted) has a level adjustment +2 Plus, when becoming a wererat, the creature gains 1d8+1 HP (which are the dire rats HP) Since the Dire rat has a ECL of 1 (for having 1 HD), how do you calculate the ECL of the Wererat/drow 1st-level Rogue ? 1 for being a 1st-level rogue 2 for being a drow 2 for being a afflicted lycanthrope 1 for "being" a 1 HD animal So does a 1st-level rogue Drow wererat has a ECL of 6 ???
Thomar_of_Uointer 03-25-07, 06:46 PM	Yup, ECL +5 (+5 LA, 1 Hit Die). And this is why I always tell people looking for a good race to play human.
paladin2019 03-25-07, 06:51 PM	(+5 LA, 1 Hit Die). Umm, isn't that LA +4 and 2 HD (1 for rog1 and 1 for the dire rat's racial HD)? Just asking.
Thomar_of_Uointer 03-25-07, 06:58 PM	Umm, isn't that LA +4 and 2 HD (1 for rog1 and 1 for the dire rat's racial HD)? Just asking. Ah, right, forgot the class level. Yep, ECL +5 (+4 LA and 1 HD). :embarrass

Thomar_of_Uointer 03-25-07, 08:05 PM	yep, two hit die. +4 LA for adjustment. It's an ECL 6. Geh. Darn numbers, you've betrayed me again! Well, I never would play a wererat anyways... :rolleyes:
