Before i removed my cap remover (minor crisis avoided thanks to andrewas [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] ) i had a running experiment with a level 40 sorc. I don't recall exactly what the aim of the experiment was, but it had some interesting side effects. After levelling to 41, my sorc underwent a mid life crisis, so to speak. He was no longer able to cast any spells or use any magic but his THAC0 had been boosted to fighter-esque proportions and he had some godlike saving throws. I am 100% positive that this is a result of the levelling stats going beyond the scope of the game. That is, the designers hadn't mapped out anything further than level 40. And that's understandable considering i was something like 10 times the initial xp cap.

I never went any further after the transformation. The game was boring enough anyway. But now that i can safely set the xp cap to whatever i want, i might load the old save up and see what happens!
