Adventurer's League Season 4 Breakdown

Hey Game Fans, today we’re going to do a quick breakdown of the Experience Points for Season 4 of Adventurer’s League.  There are two experience tracks in season 4 (One for brand new characters up to level 4, and one for more experienced characters that are level 5-10).  We’re going to list the adventures, and indicate where they belong on these tracks and maybe some good points to consider hopping from the lower level track to the upper level track.  This season can be played in direct order by following the adventure numbers, (depending on experience gains, you may have to exercise the catch up option to get from level 4 to level 5).  We’re going to take a deeper dive and see what information we can come up with to help you get your stuff together.  Read on, Game Fans.

Adventurer's League Season 4

Hey Game Fans we’re going to start our breakdown of Adventurer’s League Season 4 next week with the actual adventures and the experience point breakdowns for each, but today we’re going to talk about some of the story elements of the Season and a couple of ideas that we think are important to consider when gearing up for Season 4.  This will also probably be the last season we cover this way, because this is really the last season we were actively participating in Adventurer’s League.  We got out of it before the start of season 5, and we’ve decided not to cover that season as a result.  Let’s take a closer look at Season 4 of Adventurer’s League and have a bit of a discussion about Season 4 and some of the fun you can have with it.
