    I can see how someone might find that frustrating, I actually play ffxi and I loved it haha. Maybe a combination like in d2 that retrieving your corpse will restore some of the xp loss.

    Then we might as well just copy D2 and piss off a portion of the fan base. Your suggestion is exactly what happened in D2, you just can't lose levels like FFXI. When coming up with idea’s you need something that will get a general overall approval from the community, if your idea only caters to you or a specific group of gamers it won't fly.

    Yeah, I'm not saying that is the only option. I'm just saying I'd like to see it something a little more severe than durability loss while simply resing on your corpse haha. There is many things they could do and I'm open to all sorts of glorious ideas!!!

    Retrieving your body to grab your gear (like D2) should be plenty enough penalty. Loss exp is just frustrating and can drive away people from the game, it's one of the reasons I never gave final fantasy online a chance.

    Is anyone else noticing how unimpressive the penalties are to dying in D3? Durability loss seems mediocre at best, and they even give you the option of where you can res in RoS. I remember the xp loss in D2, and I feel like people should start to care more about whether or not their character dies. Any ideas? Paragon xp loss might be a start...

    In before "Go play hardcore"

    Agreed, dying should matter in D3. I think the classic XP loss would be a good option and someone of a significant amount of XP should be lost too. There could be other options also, of course. Durability loss is just so pointless and if the res on your corpse stays in well.. it doesn't get much simpler than that.
