Yeah, it IS if are playing a +1, +2 or +3 ECL class. Check out the Bioware forums. In order to get to level 20 as an ECL class, you have to do almost every quest. ECL +3 requires an additional 53,000 xp so every little bit DOES mean something.

It doesn't say SQUAT about you as a player if you choose to go for non-diplomatic solutions. It's called ROLEPLAYING! Not every player HAS to role play a diplomat, or attempt to apply diplomatic solutions in all cases. However it WOULD be nice if you got XP for applying your skills when you DO choose to use them.

Speaking of which, why doesn't the thief get xp for recovering traps, removing traps? I seem to recall that you DID get xp for that in BG2 I think?
