Let us inherit EXP on death

Postby jordancoles » Thu Oct 12, 2017 1:28 am

A portion of your EXP needs to be saved when you die.
When I died earlier this world I had 26k exp stored but when I inherited my character I only had 1k

Please let us recover some EXP after inheriting in the same way that we can keep some LP/attributes

Large +1 to this. It takes a long time to actually stock up on EXP, and being set back to no experience is just another thing people will quit. I've reached a point several times where all I would do is get on and attempt to grind EXP for hours because I simply could not keep above 1000 after dying. Really kills my urge to play when i'm just playing EXP grinder.

With the abundance of quests, I don't think it's as important now. In previous worlds I definitely would have agreed.
“We still, alas, cannot forestall it-
This dreadful ailment's heavy toll;
The spleen is what the English call it,
We call it simply, Russian soul.”

An idea to consider: Tedium, a Feature.

26k exp still takes quite a while to grind out.
Dying and being set back to 1k is pretty shit, specially when inheritance works for all other character stats/attributes including credos.

Also, if you die on a decently statted character you'll want to fill your head with a lot of high-end curios to get back some of what you lost however those curios usually have a high exp cost.

Comparable amount took me ~5 hours of lazy questing a week or two ago, I'm with Onep on this.

This would be a wonderful idea. Imagine trying to save up EXP to upgrade a well (for example) only to die and lose it all to a fluke or another player.

If you have nothing to make, then maybe it is still something. Why? Because you possess the idea that you wish to make something from nothing.

Maybe not when you can get 1k xp for creating a character a whole load more for the first round of lor events.

Would the concern be suiciding alts for infinite exp? Maybe then you would only inherit a percentage of your EXP minus the amount you gain from Wind & Fire and the first few events.

The amount you inherit could then be (%)(Current EXP)-(1500) where if the value is less than 0, it will be set to 0. This means that a new character that dies with 1500 or less EXP would inherit 0.

Somebody will make a bot that grinds alts until one gets a char with like million xp.
