The experience point cap, I believe, can only be reached in game at the higher difficulty settings.

Another way to get more experience is to increase the difficulty setting. This can give you monsters that do a bit more damage and more monsters in cetrtain areas and it ups the experience point values of everything you do including quests.
Im playing normal difficulty

now the manual for this game and also for baldurs gate 1 & 2 says:
"There is an experience point penalty for reducing the difficulty of the game below normal. There is not a bonus for playing more difficult games."

so is the manual wrong? do you get more XP for higher difficulties?

also... problem with ettin/ blue mushroom area is that many times i get woken up by orogs... which give little XP.... another good area is level 1 on lower dorms deep which gives fire salamanders... 2000XP each though they can be difficult

and thanks for all who helped,.
