hit points

Post by lompo »

When you level-up your hit points increase by number determined from a dice (specific for each class), but for how many level-ups does that work?
In 2nd ed. rules it worked like that for the first 9 level, then you got 3,2 or 1 hp per level (depending on the class), is the same with the new rules?

You get one hit die for each level, which is determined by the class you choose to level up in. For instance, if you are 15th level and have taken all 15 levels as a fighter, you will have 15d10 HD. If you are a multi-classed 5th level fighter and 8th level wizard, you will have 5d10 HD from your fighter class and 8d4 HD from the wizard class (plus any CON bonus). If your fighter/mage makes 14th level, and chooses to take a level of cleric, he will get another d8 HD for a total of 5d10+8d4+d8 HD (plus toughness feats and CON bonus, if any).

If brute force doesn't work, you're not using enough.

nice, a level 20 dwarf barbarian (with 20 con) would get 340hp max. (without increasing con or feats)

You continue gaining Hit Die all the way to 30th level which is the max for the game.
It is best to be thought a fool and stay silent, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
