Right, so I beat the game once and now I am going to go back on a harder difficulty. In the first run, my characters ended up as levels 33, 32, 31 and 34 and what I am wondering now is what is the most efficient mix of traits to put on a character. I imagine having no traits doesn't help you much, as that XP that you will not be denied will only mean you will hit the level wall earlier, and with no nifty traits. So, what I want to determine is what XP penalty a character can bear and still acheive the average maximum level for beating the game.
