    Greetings everyone! I am very excited to begin playing this game with this awesome mod,but I can't find anywhere(and I try realy hard,believe me) a proper answer on one very important question.If I will complite ALL quests and other XP-awarded things,and will use NPCs ONLY for quests in which they are needed,what level my party members will get in the endgame(before final Boss),if it will be party of 4PCs,of 5PCs,of 6 PCs,of 7 PCs,of 8 PCs(and yes,I know I need slots for quest NPCs and familiars)?The same question I have about "The Keep on the Borderlands".Please,help me to understand how it's going to be.Some thoughts about achieved levels after 1/3 ,1/2 ,2/3 of the game also will be VERY appreciated!Much thanks and glory to EVERYONE who will give me ANY information!ALL your answers are VERY important to me!

    I dont know if I would be able to tell you based on each party size makeup.

    But in my few run throughs I have had a party of 6 at level 4 after the moat house, level 7 into the second floor of the temple and I haven't gotten to level 4 yet.

    Some people have said that after the temple and all of the extra content to expect level 15 to 17 for a party of 5.

    Keep on the border land is suppose to get a party of 5 to level 6 or 7 I believe.

    For 8 PCs - if completing all the quests (and without farming of generic random encounters/rest areas):
    - You're getting level 10 at elemental nodes
    - You're at level 16 before you do the final quest (Demons & Demigods)

    My very rough estimate is that your party has to be 4 PCs max in order to get level 20 before the final quest, but I might be wrong since the formula is more complex and there will be some point when most of the enemies won't be giving you any EXP at all.

    Grinding random encounters throws all the math off.

    Anytime! I've been really enjoying trying out all sorts of stuff. I know this forum is active. Just wish the discord was active too haha.

    Note that EXP is gained on a per-character basis based on their effective level. Levels 1-3 give the same EXP and it changes from there.

    Also @OLLY613 if you use Temple plus you can click to sit on experience and only later level up, so that may allow you to get to higher levels with your party.
