Furthermore, I did a little bit of math to see how significantly a smaller party would effect leveling.
At about the 120,000 combined XP mark (HOW tables) you can have any six of these:
L5 Paladin, Ranger or Fighter
L6 Rogue
L5 Cleric
L6 Druid
L5 Wizard
L4/5 Fighter/Thief
L4/4 Cleric/Mage
L4/4 Ranger/Cleric
Or any 4 of these:
L6 Paladin, Ranger, or Fighter
L7 Rogue
L6 Cleric
L7 Druid
L6 Wizard
L5/6 Fighter/Thief
L5/5 Cleric/Mage
L5/5 Ranger/Cleric
At 1,000,000 combined XP you can have 6 of:
L7 Ranger or Paladin
L8 Fighter
L10 Rogue
L8 Cleric
L10 Druid
L9 Mage
L7/8 Fighter/Thief
L7/7 Cleric/Mage
L7/7 Ranger/Cleric
or any 4 of:
L8 Ranger or Paladin
L9 Fighter
L11 Rogue
L9 Cleric
L11 Druid
L10 Mage
L8/9 Fighter/Thief
L8/8 Cleric/Mage
L7/8 Ranger/Cleric
Finally, at 5,000,000 combined XP you can have 6 of:
L10 Ranger or Paladin
L11 Fighter
L14 Rogue
L11 Cleric
L13 Druid
L12 Mage
L9/11 Fighter/Thief
L9/11 Cleric/Mage
L9/9 Ranger/Cleric
or any 4 of:
L12 Ranger or Paladin
L13 Fighter
L15 Rogue
L13 Cleric
L13 Druid
L13 Mage
L10/12 Fighter/Thief
L10/11 Cleric/Mage
L10/10 Ranger/Cleric
It seems to me that a smaller party size only increases the level of a party member by 1-2 levels throughout the game. I'd predict that if you shrank the party size to 3, it would probably only give you an extra 2-3 levels. Is this really very significant considering what you lose from having extra people around (like more total attacks/actions per round).
