    To cut to the chase, it would be useful if one could disable the exp you gain from PQs. You see I am one who enjoys "completing" content and due to the bonus exp rates here I find myself leveling faster than I can keep up, leading to frequent suicide.

    This is especially as issue with Ellin PQ as you gain quite alot per run. I thought at the max level it would only require a few suicide trips, but it ends up being about 5-6 runs per trip. Particularly Ellin isn't a fast place to kill yourself either. This makes obtaining the earrings tedious in a way I'm unsure was intended. So the idea I had was including an option to opt out of the PQ clear exp (doesn't have to include monster kills if it makes it easier to implement).

    A much more drastic but equally useful measure would be a suicide button that functions in town but if such a thing is remotely possible I'm unsure.

    just take your equips off and jump in to a monster repeatedly, you respawn with 50hp anyways.

    I like this idea! WoW had an option where you could talk to a certain NPC and they would stop your EXP gain altogether... For whatever reason.

    I also had the thought of having an "EXP funnel" system implemented here. Where one redirects all their EXP into a bank or an item which they can later consume, and choose how much they want to consume.

    I agree, dying is overly tedious, and silly.

    There isn't any difficulty here, it's just inconvenient to leave your pq area to lose exp and continue for your unique reward. In LPQ you could at least town scroll and there's a nice place to die next to it, but this is not the case for Ellin, and you have to walk back in any case which holds things up for the rest of the party.

    Another third alternative would be to have negative exp which I remember being a thing, you could reduce the issue slightly by dying more in one sitting and I don't believe a normal player dies that often that it could be punishing.

    You respawn at fm if you die there. Jump off the top platform, rinse and repeat.
