So, I'm level 53. How would I get any EXP from a level 1xx killing skele's, if neither the character nor the monster are within 5 levels of me? I just don't understand how it's done.

Well, there are rules such as, if you were lvl 108, THEN you can leech at skeles. Then there are such things as PG mules. For e.g., when the lvl 1xx is killing BF(Big Foot) Since at lvl 53 you can't hit it, you would need a PG mule to run into the BF, and die, then because it does that you'll get the exp that it was supposed to get.

That's really confusing. So if I was to purchase leeching from someone (level 1xx) with my character right now, level 53 Bandit, with no PG mule, it would be pointless because I wouldn't get any EXP?

A PG MULE hits all the monsters (Skeles) in the map then the bishop/ArchMage Hits all of them and you get ALOT of Exp :D, But extremly expensive. without a PG mule you won't get any EXP unless you hit 108+ :D. <3 ImSoRude.

Correct. Unless you know what your doing, Don't leech.

Well This is a simple way to explain it. To get exp off a monster, you must be within 5lvls lower of it. There is a way to bypass this, by using a Power Gaurd Mule (bassicly a fighter with very high hp and is not meant to lvl). Once The monster gets hit by the PG Mule, u will get the Exp if you are over his/her lvl or under it by the limit of 5 Lvls. Get it?

Look, idk where you could be leeching at your lv. But you need to meet a certain lv requirement. Skeles is lv 108, newts is 105, harps is 90?, Wolf spiders is 70 or 78.. When you reach that lv, it means that someone of ANY LEVEL, when partying with you, can get YOU exp by HIM killing monsters. Get it? And with a mage using his ultimates on the whole map, fast lvling is made!

Let me put it in other way, what the first poster said. The level difference between you and the monster should be 5 to leech passively or you should be 5 levels away from the attacker. WS leech starts at 75 and harps at 78.

Yes it would be pointless. PG mule is to allow you to leech. If you're in the range level of a PG mule and it does the hitting for you with PG. Then its technically like you hitting it without actually doing the hitting. Which in the end you're actually leeching off the PG mule since it hit the monster for you.

Leeching is too complicated for me, and just isn't for me. I thought the point of the game is to have fun and enjoy leveling up on your own after hours of training.

I was just trying to figure out how people do it. It was just baffling to me how people leveled so fast, but now I understand it.
