Hmm ok guys, thanks for your inputs.

Think i will try hard mode and if it's too difficult i'll switch down and at least i know how hard it can be. Hopefully the amount of loot to be found does not decrease with hard?

I am in Cyseal still but have 4675 XP out of 3685 but have not increased level yet. Why have i gone over the level up amount but not levelled?

Cheers dudes
