No, you haven't set your character's EXP correctly. Just changing the level isn't enough, you have to change your EXP amount to match the level. If you set your level to 50, but your EXP is that of level 12, then when you die your exp is recalculated and the level is reset to what it should be.

I sorta did not get that, its abit confusing for me.

Okay, you changed your level in the database. Your level doesn't match the amount of experience though.

Say for a lvl 50 you need 500000 exp, but you have the exp of a lvl 12 which is, say, 60000. Youd have to change your exp from 60000 to 5000000 to match your lvl

he means if you change it to level 50 ok you where lvl 12 before you changed it meaning that your exp is at a lvl 12 exp's so at level 50 you'd loose exp and delevel back to 12

He Means that if you change your Character's level, you will need to change his EXP aswell.
Why? Cause if you level down after level change, the system will look at your character's EXP and calculate what level it should be then.

Simple explanation (just to make you get a better view on what's the problem):

A lvl 1 has 1000 EXP.

You change level into level 50.

Now you have :
A level 50 with 1000 EXP.

Now you get killed "oh noes!!"
You level down.

Now the server will look at your EXP to see what Level he should replace the 50 With.
It will set it back to 1.


I hope you get it now :laugh:
