+1 level adustment means that your character has different XP table. To gain a level, you must obtain 1000 * effective character level (all class levels + sub-race additions):

A Level 4 Aasimar Paladin needs ((4+1)*1000) = 5000 XP to go from level 4 to 5.
A Level 4 Human Paladin needs ((4+0)*1000) = 4000 XP to go from level 4 to 5.
A Level 4 Drow Paladin needs ((4+2)*1000) = 6000XP to go from level 4 to 5.

Vesselle noted that all characters go up at Level 1 to Level 2. That's because the devs give higher difficulty races support at that stage of the game. Drow get 2000 bonus XP, Aasimar & Teifling sub-races get 1000 bonus XP, etc...

Eventually, you will notice the difference in level-up rates. It isn't huge, by any stretch of the imagination. Certainly not as different as Rogues & Paladins in the old rules. [img]smile.gif[/img]
