Because you say you feel your time disrepected and find death demoralizing. Why is that ? Because you want to reach level 100. Why ?

Dude the point of the game is to progress and improve your character. Every time you level up, you receive passive points, most people have an idea of where they want to put those passive points.

I think the system just needs a re-think, either reduce it at higher levels to compensate for the exponential growth in required exp per level or give us the option to retrieve the loot that was lost at least. Death is just too punishing at the moment, it matters too much.

r u stupid, high, ur just intentionally dense, i want me character to grow and feel stronger is the simple answer, cause 10-4 more skills for the level 90 and higher crowd will make a difference and certainly 30 skills for my level 70, because reaching the maxium threshold of power eliminates the dilemma of "if i was stronger i could have won". all that and then some more is y exp loss is dumb and so r u for defending it. u might now feel like it would make a difference but its not gonna stop the psyche from telling me it would and u insulting isnt going to change that, nor is telling me or anyone else to "do better". heres a solution if 100 is prize to be coveted by the likes of you why cant the story end with the character at 99 with the last level taking an additional amount of exp equivalent to levels 1-99, then at least u would have a leg to stand on as 1 point isnt probably going to make a difference and you can keep you oh so important gamer pride

Exponential XP required to level up would mean nothing without the flat 10% XP penalty.

Improving your character past level 90-95 isn't made with passive points. People thinking they should have those 10 last passive points (out of 124) don't realize most normal PoE players consider their talent trees done at level 85-90.

Gear, overall build synergies, planning, knowledge, and skill, are much more important to progress than level at this point.

Nobody is asking you to reach level 100. Nobody. Ever. It's not required for anything. That's not how PoE/2 are designed. That's all in your head, that's a self imposed challenge.

really kinda like the arbitrary exp loss that i can just grind in story/pay some Chinese guy across bay ala elon to accomplish, if the last levels r arbitrary why cant they be gained without loss. also love how ur ignoring the fact that this shit kicks in around level 65-70 when most players have finished the story and how thats the filtering point not the people who stay in the abusive game till 90+ when it becomes impossible unless ur playing perfect
