One thing I am really enjoying with my recent campaign is I set down and talked to the players and they agreed were not doing XP. Basically as they complete certain parts of the storyline they level up. Sometimes it's at a halfway point or sometimes it's after finishing a major goal.

It is so much easier on me not worrying about XP. It really allows me to throw a large array of monsters at them and even reuse monsters a few times without worry of them leveling past them being a challenge. I think it's a much better way of playing and takes a frustrating part of the game out.

It also allows them to level up at appropriate times without any one hassling me right after a battle about leveling up their character.

Have any of you had any good or bad encounters with running a XP less campaign?
