    You dont lose past 0%. If youre 40 and .1% and die, you only lose .1%

    If they made this game where you lost NO exp when you died it would be too easy.

    You can not "delevel"

    If there was no exp loss than everyone would be fine with dying and clerics will loose their edge. They won't even have to buy their revive skill since people can go back to town with no consequence whatsoever.

    And you can't go back a level. You can only move forward or stay where you are.

    I've only ever played one game where you could delevel and everyone hated deleveling.
    The only way to win is to quit. b:bye

    A certain korean mmo whose name implies it is heavily flying-based yet in actuality has a shoddy flying system?

    There's an edit button on every post you make. Use it, please.

    Losing exp when you die is like...a given with MMOs. If you play any other MMO it's the same, although the amount you lose and at what level might be different.

    And um...5 percent of a level 100's exp bar does not equal all the exp from levels 95-99.

    It's not always 5%. I've seen 3%-5%, but I'm not sure what the determining factor is for that, and the XP bar is the amount needed to level to the next level, and is wiped to 0 + run-over XP at the start of each level.

    your spiritual cultivation level determines your xp loss
    5% first ........2% at 69 ,1% at 79, .6% at 89 are last numbers i remember to be somewhat accurate
    so i assume 5%,19=4.5,4,3.5,3,2.5=59

    I'm at 2% right now. It's a level thing. However, I'm not sure which the set levels are when it changes. You lose less %, but more EXP the higher you go.

    EDIT: Mosz beat me to it with a better explanation.

    I feel that there should be many more penalties for dying, like losing items and whatnot.

    it would be easier if we didnt lose exp at all...in WoW we dont lose exp...instead our repair bill goes up...why cant we do that? honestly? i mean, if u cant help but dying, then ur stuck at a lvl for a really long time...it happened once and i almost wanted to stop playing PWI so if they could just change that, i would be super happy b:victory

    I want more penalties for dying, like item loss. Dying should have some form of a penalty.

    I must say the loss of exp is pretty high compared to lower levels.
    I lose like 2% if i die at 8x (an hour grinding)
    this was like 5% at 4x (less than 10min grinding)

    but pvp wise they shud really make a higher chance on dropping stuff ^^
    especially pink named ppl :D

    and talking about pvp they shud make a range in what lvls you can pk, like 20 lvls so lvl 90 naabs wont pk lvl 30s :)

    No. Absolutely no item drop when you die. I tend to keep a lot of stuff with me(mainly because I don't have room for it all in my bank, even with the extension quests). I had that on a different mmorpg, and it only left you your 3 most valuable items. Can't even begin to tell you how much stuff I lost because of that. To be honest, I'd gladly lose a few minutes worth of grinding instead of losing 20k worth of items and equipment. At least you can get the xp back.
    I used to wonder why I would have these scary dreams every month. About the wolf, who kept running through town. And as I wondered, I also thought about how I couldn't remember having those dreams before being bitten by this very big dog...



    But now I know the truth.
    And I am not afraid.

    20k worth of items. When you get to my level, you'd lose tens of millions worth of equipment.

    The exp loss is fine, I lose I think about .8% when I die now. I think I lose too little exp since I like to stay at a level for a long time to get better gear and rep and such.
