XP Pleadings

Players want XP! herse what they said and what they got

Spartacus deservedly gets xp for each person who died in the boat explosion

however

Drago and Ronon distracted and battled Mavis for a few rounds (Drago going solo for the first chunk of it) while dozens of remaining friends and foe skimpered to…or by default received salvation. Ronin endured several consecutive “Bulls Eye” plasma blasts (something none of us have seen before) while Drago gave Mavis a FLYING BEAR HUG of the SERPENT before he was blown out of the dimension. Each moment they stood to fight they could have ran. Each moment they could have fled for their lives (ironically how the Mage got eaten).


Conclusion: Both Ronon and Drago risked their lives and deserve at least as much credit for overt and repeated (just one or a few mentioned above) selfless acts to intentionally save many lives. I think they deserve XP for each moment they were attemping to save however many lives..

P.S. Drago also had the right of mind to share Tongues with Ronon and later Spartacus (so he could bond with the elf chick he obliterated later). Each were separate and deliberate acts to grant communication in situations where it was not otherwise possible.

RELATED:

- Built at least 2-3 layers, got XP for one.
- Had between 10-13 skill rolls with tracking, teleport, lore magic(s), lore faeries (125 xp = 5 skill rolls)
and from ronin

I agree our experience points garnered from the Jan 20th session was low, did we actually receive less experience for defending all those people, defeating an ancient dragon, and saving multiple lives then Sparticus did for blowing up a Gnomish hospital boat full of allies (2000+ XP)? That said I do also did have an issue with the XP given for killing innocents, friendlies, and allies. If you burn down a building with 1000 people inside do you get XP for killing 1000 enemies or for successfully setting the fire and destroying the building?

What actual experience was garnered in that - the very last sentence on pg 293 in the Ultimate book “Negative and foolish actions get no experience points.”
