So, I go kill mobs and my bags are full like usual, then I empty it and return to portal and the mobs reappear. I keep doing it for fun seeing if my XP goes up and it did a bit… Not sure if that’s an exploit or just nothing.
It’s not an exploit. Zones aren’t instanced, which means they don’t persist when you portal out.
It’s not really worth doing it for XPs, since the area level stays the same and you get better XPs as you move on.
Also, it should be noted that picking everything up to sell at the vendor is mostly useless. You have way better sources of gold, including gold shrines.
Although you never seem to be able to stick to one character until monoliths, so I guess it’s harder for you? Still, you should get a lot more gold simply by killing mobs, rather than waste time going back to sell stuff.
I"m getting the hang of this game now… I’m just sticking to max out my HP and focusing on that and have resistances build in automatically.
Don’t pick all the trash that drops. If you have noticed, most of it is worth several gold pieces. It’s not worth it, you pick more gold just by killing monsters
