Moving the EXP bar to the bottom of the screen

Most other MMOs ive played had the EXP bar span the bottom of the screen. I think it is better because it is easier to see, it is big so you know how much xp you have and since exp is one of the most important pieces of info it should be displayed in a way that it can easily be referenced, instead of a tiny little purple bar near your pic

    The exp bar looks just fine, I have no idea what you're talking about when you say moving it at the bottom would make it easier to see.

    Thats exactly what i mean Ski. Hvaing it span the bottom of the screen and making it bigger as well as more detailed. It does not look fine because all you see is a percentage in small text and a filling bar. that should only be acceptable for HP, Mana, or any other thing any other MMO would have

    Lol? I find it harder to keep track of exp in your pictures. A % is more precise and you know exactly how much exp% you get from doing certain instances or grinding for a set amount of time...Easier to plan your lvling this way.

    Not really.. I mean theycan still place the xp % in the bar or right on top of it

    the point im trying to make is that it eould be nicer to have a bigger abd more detailed exp bar. The screenshots were because you said you "had no idea" what i meant bu having it at the bottom of the screen.

    Lol. I am on my iphone abd this forum is making it lag like a bitcg so excuse all the typoes

    The MMOs I've played have had the same sort of system as they have here. I don't like keeping track of my exp if I'm honest. It makes me sad... >:

    i completely disagree with this... changing the placement of the exp bar won't change anything at all.

    if you rly are that obsessed with constantly seeing how much exp you have, you can either glance into the corner of your screen (i know it uses a lot of carbs and dehydrates you) or click the letters EXP nxt to the purple bar to place an additional exp tracking meter right above your character's head so u can see it at all times np

    this game is better than WoW in so many ways,... stat distribution and mid-air pvp are two things that come to mind... so yea. imo we rly don't need to be taking any lessons from them
