experience point ceiling per-fight (c64)

Post by jrodman »

FWIW, it sure seems like there's a cap on per-fight experience at 65208, at least in my 7-character party. That's a number unsurprisingly close to the 16bit integer ceiling, though it's kind of odd that it's a few hundred short.

As my fighters can barely hit anything in the Maze of Dread, I thought I'd grind out some levels against illusions, but the cap is kind of cramping my style.

Score one for the amiga/pc versions; can track exp over 65 thousand :-D

65280 is the actual cap per encounter. It maxes out at 65280 experience, then maxes out at 65280 gold.

It's identical in BTI, and in BTIII the caps are 100,000.

Yeahhhh, okay. It's too bad the non-8 bit ports are lacklustre in nearly every other aspect. :roll:
