Default Negative exp

Im stuck between new targarnor and the rest of thestra, it says in the faq that they are for friends that happen to make races on different continents to be able to meet up, im just sitting at the altar, the mobs have huge aggro ranges it is literally impossible to get from targarnor to the village of three rivers. i have a full level of negative experience and what is the point of that. wasd the game made to torment its players, i know its supposed to be hard but allowing all that negative exp does nothing for anyone except frustrate

I can see how having a full level of negative XP would be frustrating but i think the xp loss, as a whole is a good thing.

exp loss is fine but imo negative exp loss is pointless

Your situation sucks, did you try to recall back to your bind point?

I think their other option would have been level loss after you lose enough exp instead of debt. Personally i would rather have the loss, then debt after a you would have lost enough to loose a level, rather than loss and the possibility to de-level. De-leveling is not fun.

That would be XP debt actually and i also think that's fine. If the mobs aggro range is as massive as all that i can only assume that you're in an area that's way beyond your level. I applaud your determination to get to your friends but, honestly, at a certan point i would think you'd just give up and gate home, if possible. If you repeatedly bang your head against a wall who's fault is it that you get hurt, yours or the walls?

Please, people aren't levelling fast enough already? I saw level 12s running around an hour ago.

And if you think of it as hard work you shouldn't be playing.

Easy solution is to quit dying.

If your getting your arse beat by whats around that area simply recall and try another route.

Also if you took the boat to new targanor theres a portal mistress there that will portal you to leth nurae. then you can walk from there much safer. Unless of course they took her out after beta........


negative xp is the games way of saying "HEY MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T BE AROUND THIS AREA!!!!!"
Guy walks into the doctor and says hey doc everytime I do this my arm hurts....... So the doctor looks at him thinks for a minute and says so quit doing that that.
