#1 wolfdarkstar Aug 09, 2009 17:54:40	Hi I am having a bit of trouble understanding the ECL rule ?? I am starting a carter at level 3 the race is Goliath and thy have a +1 level adjustment . Would that make my Goliath a level 2 fighter with the xp of a 3rd or do I make him level 3 with the xp of a 4th Thank you for your time ...
#2 dalzig Aug 09, 2009 18:02:27	(This is from memory... sorry if it's wrong.) ECL = Class levels + Racial hit dice + level adjustment When you "start at level 3," that means you start at an ECL of 3. So you would be a Level 2 Goliath Fighter with the experience of a Level 3 Human Fighter.
