Yes. The chat system in FlyFF is "kinda crappy", but... it's free :-)

When you die, and respawn at Lodelight/Lodestar, an Exp box appears at the location of your death. When you use that box (you can do it while flying), you get 30% of the lost experience back (so almost 1%).

This pretty much kills Resurrection for higher levels, since 1% Experience is usually worth more than the time it takes to get back to where you died.

That's part of the skill system. FlyFF is a "skill-level by use" game: skills have their own experience count, and you get experience when you USE a skill. Doesn't matter how or why or how effective it is; you hit the key and you get skill-experience.

Catch is... when you get skill experience, you "loose" PXP. If there's not enough PXP left, you do not get skill experience. This basically prevents you from putting a weight on your F1 key, leave the computer running for a week, and get that buff to lvl 20 :-)

You restore PXP by killing a monster (almost any monster will do, even much lower ones. This is often considered a bug). Party kills restore PXP, too.

So in normal gameplay, PXP is of no concern. Some skills are "PXP hogs" when you get them (back when Myrwen got Mental Strike, she couldn't even kill a single monster AND get skill experience for every cast), but later in the game skills take very little PXP.

It's merely there to annoy people trying to level their buffs.

hmmm i dont think its stuck at 100% and pxp is for your skills to lvl your skills some of ur pxp goes into lvling them just like how you exp is apart of your main lvl you shouldt really worry about pxp unless you going to be a assist becase they prettu much relly on this for buffing whe nthe other class just kill so fast it recharges heaps anyway

iKai

oh alright i'm thinking blade or knight anyway probably knight

ya i think as a vagrant it stays at 100% cause our skills dont get pxp? i could be wrong i kidna just started playing. Was just curious, i'm on the Mai server should i switch to a different one? i didn't really research which servers had a better population so i'm only lvl 10 or 11 so i would rather switch now before it gets too late. Also, i'm on a pk server casue i assumed thats the only pvp serveR? last, what about guild pvp? are there battles or is it more like some people get together and go out and kill others? srry if these are a lot of noob questions i keep searchin around for answers but respond if u can, thaks.

my bad im not on Mai im on Mia lol.

kait0s

im on basicly all the time

and if you pxp is stuck at 100% after vagrant, then you need to click K, and goto skills, click the skill and make sure there is a arror next to it, and not a -
