Hi ! Has anyone figured out how the HP of imported characters are determined ? See, I just imported self-made characters from BG1 to BG2. My main character, a half-elven Ranger(CON 19) with 77 HP in BG1now has 93 HP, while my elvish Fighter/Mage (CON 17, about 40 HP in BG1) suddenly has 97 HP. How come ? Shouldn´t the Ranger definitely have more HP ?

BG2 might have some bug when determining HP for imported multi-class characters. The base HP jumped to 124 for my elven fighter/thief when I imported him from BG1. :eek:

Dousn't the game re-roll all you're hitpoints when importing?

The game doesn't reroll the HP value of imported characters.
As for the unsual high HP of your imported characters, I think that you might have the gamedifficulty at less than "Core". Having a difficulty less than core grants maximum HP.
If this isn't it, then I can't explain it.

Nope, that's not it either. :) My character's base HP exceeded the max by a lot: with a 7th level fighter/8th level thief, I should have had a base of 59, not 124.

I've checked it with the one character that I have left from BG1, but it doesn't matter at which level you import the character. By the way, it didn't differ for my character. The amount of HP from Bg1 was the same as when importing into Bg2
