In 5.3 the experience levels increase as follows:
1 - 10 exp. points
2 - 20 exp. points
3 - 40 exp. points
4 - 80 exp. points
.

.
n - (n-1) (for those who wish to get mathematical)
10*2
Needless to say the points required to jump levels after a certain point
can get pretty high. Mind you the monsters at higher levels give you more exp.
points when you kill them but it is still tougher to increase your exp. level.
Best to save raise level potions as long as possible. Also standing on a scare
monster scroll with a polymorph wand at a lower level and zapping emus into
jabberwocks and griffins can prove beneficial(ie. you can instantly jump from
level 3 to level 10). This way nothing should worry you until about maze level
17. The only possible problem with doing this is if you get a dragon who
proceeds to fry you.
