When my main character turned level 3, I decided to hire 8 level 2 adventurers, so I took 4 of them with me, leaving another 4 behind. After playing for some time, I went to swap my team and noticed that all my inactive characters had different amounts of xp.
By the time I was level 5, I had a couple of characters who were still only level 3, which means I would be better of killing them and hiring level 4 characters instead! This is very game breaking for me.
I know in the first game they are all supposed to earn 75% of the xp your active party earns. So I was wondering if anyone could explain how much they are supposed to earn when inactive in deadfire?
