Loosing EP (Earned Potential)

[L MiK]

Well, I'm just curious about this because I had a level 137 which I bought (Was recovered sadly) but when I was to do 76K tricks on him I would only loose 20-25 EP PER kill, never anymore then 25 from what I seen, but as I do it on my level 113 which is mine I seem to loose up to 60 EP?! I had people tell me it had to do with having a certain summoning level? but I don't know, if somebody can please post a quick reasoning on why this is that would be great.

The higher your EP the more you can lose, obviously.

Maybe you EP was just lower on your 137. Also, I've noticed that targ kills seem to use up more EP than normal kills.

Not sure about how much EP you lose, but higher levels always get better drops in fact.

Its random depending on the drop, better loot would mean more ep lost generally.

Thats not completely true. you could lose 60+ ep and still only get a 200k drop or less

I've had my EP cut in half and gotten like a 30k drop several times.. and when I say in half I mean -50 EP.. Maybe your EP loss could have something to do with your DP.
