Hello cRPG community, so as I'm sure you are all aware we can transfer gold between our characters, which is of course an excellent feature. I'm also sure I have seen a thread a while ago about also transferring exp. Can and will this become a reality? For alot of players, hours are spent grinding alternative characters for all sorts of reasons. Often it is to help fund their main characters. I therefore propose to the Devs that it is in everyone's interests if transferable exp becomes real (Obviously not from Skip the fun characters) and as a result that character would be deleted after transfer of exp. Now I do appreciate instant exp transfer could buff main chars and therefore potentially could harm game balance slightly, however I am sure there are ways to limit any side affects. One example would be to take a percentage of exp away similar to gold tax on the market place.

While this is only an idea, it is vital to hear from anyone interested as their opinions and own ideas are what help keep this mod vibrant and fun. So speak up and let your thoughts be heard!

Regards
FleetFox

P.s yes this thread should be in the suggestions corner but it will be seen much more hear

Why would buffing the steppe horse be kind of stupid?
1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.

I'm in for this as long as the character transferred from is deleted permanently (or else you can use a gen 15 leecher to abuse it).
I think it would be fair. Time invested is always time invested. No matter what character.

Not a good idea.

Imagine you can create a skip the fun every week, and you could transfer the 4,4 mil xp from the stf to the main without doing anything with your main.

Thats just a noobish way to farm exp without playing.

Crazy idea.

Good idea Fleet, as Riddaren says as long as character was deleted after :) +1

Yes the character would have to be deleted, and as you say it is all about the time invested

Are you aware that there is alot of systems in place to make people retire and to prevent people from getting too high level?

Why would going against all those systems be a good idea?

This would be appreciated by players having a lot of alt characters they no longer use.
I don't think you should be able to transfer XP to the main but only between alts.

But yeah... we have 50% XP removal upon respectating so this would kind of ruin that.
The solution would be to only transfer 50% of the experience.

Yes 50% would have to be the case for it to be viable.

No way.
Dont let this be more like an arcade game than it is already.
It`s ways too easy to level atm anyway and I dunno how
it would be possible to transfer combat experience
between persons, especially when they did fight completely different styles.
Lets keep this system on a somehow realistic level and dont
make it more of a nerdy fantasy bullshit competition.

By the way, your idea is NOT new, the search function is something really useful if used with brain man
(and this is the wrong place of the forum, fucker....)
I don't want to give a feedback to molly neither i want to ban him,I wanted to give advise high authorities to take his admin rights.Panos you monkey wrench where would u put this topic enlighten me you cancer fuck.

After proper consideration this isnt a good idea, especially since people could take advantage of the EU 5 fast exp server below lvl 21. Still it would be nice to see that you could save some of your time invested. Locking thread now.
