Efficiency = XP / BP
Minimum XP for your 15 BP = 15 = raising 7 Abilities to 2 and 1 Caste Ability to 2
Maximum XP for your 15 BP = 120 = raising 2 Virtues from 3 to 5 and buying Specialties in Caste Abilities 3 times

Comments

This is great! I've always wondered exactly how this worked out. I quite like the way munchkins will be tempted to take high virtues and so play into the hands of the whole being a glorious, fanatical, overbearing god-king thing. Just 1 point: where does it say specialties in caste abilities cost 6 instead of 3? - Voidstate

Specialties cost three XP whether they are in Caste, Favored, or other Abilities. However, when spending BP, 1 BP buys you 2 specialties in Caste or Favored Abilities. 1 BP buys you 1 specialty in other Abilities. - Qzujak49

Ah. I see. Thanks - I was a bit confused for a bit there. - Voidstate
