Missing XP death pickup.

[Ivanark]

Don't know what to call it, but when you died your xp ends up on the enemy that killed you or on the ground. Sometimes it's missing. I just got killed by a monster, ran back, killed it, can't find my xp.

And it was a fair amount, so I want it back. I DO have an X for player death on the map, but not in the world. Help?

Okay, I'm not sure but I think my XP drop is under the map. I was killed by one of those brown -not a wompa- monsters in the 'beat against ground move' and I think my XP ended up just under the map.

Technically you get your xp back the moment you hit the monster, not when you kill it.
Also doesn't matter much losing xp, get the xp gain perk to gain more of it back.

Monster is dead, I didn't get it.

Told ya you would get it back via just hitting the right monster.
The monster has your xp only if it glows yellow, if it ain't yellow, then it doesn't have your xp, if it has your xp, after hitting it you get xp back and it will stop glowing yellow.
Unless there is some other bug.
No idea what happens if the monster dies of some other reason, aka not by you.

Lot of time you'll find the XP on the ground somewhere. I think this is one of those cases, but it's UNDER the ground.

Guess so, never seen xp on the ground.
But yeah stuff can get stuck under ground, including monsters.

Got the exact same bug. Is it the 1st brown wompa guy you encounter on your way to the forest array tower? Dude killed me and 99% sure my xp is stuck in that slope leading up to him. Not game breaking but a super annoying ass bug. I was pretty close to a skill point

Just to be sure, do you have a gambler perk equiped?

[Ivanark]

No, but I do have wisdom...

Exactly the same thing happend to me as well. No way to recover that XP

Had the same issue with the same enemy. It was at the part where you fight it on the bridge. Luckly I had only a hair of xp when it killed me

I noticed when one of the Patrols killed me by a meditation point that when I came back the XP wasn't there and the patrol was different. Instead of 2 DT Droids and Jet troopers it was just a Purge Trooper and shield scouts. I never really tested it to see if this is what happens but maybe the patrols are random, so then patrol enemies would be "new" enemies every time even if the same types spawned and not keep XP. Thinking about it right now though another thought comes to mind. If they aren't random spawns then since I had just respawned there, the DT Patrol wouldn't have walked to that spot yet and would be somewhere else on their way. The not-wampa you fought could've been wandering towards that spot from it's spawn or something, and with how much spawns around the late game world it could easily get sidetracked by other enemies and just not reach the same spot again. If it was one of the static spawned ones that don't move then sorry for the long pointless comment, I overthink these things.

When you lose xp from a death its always under 1 level, it is not a big deal. You get so much xp that you can max out many of the skill tree's just from playing through the story.

It's five days later and I have all skills and 50 surplus skill points, but it was still pretty irritating when I really needed skills.

If anybody's still playing this game and needs this, I think I may have found a solution. Same sort of scenario. Got killed by one of the big beefy guys who smashed me into the ground. For some reason the XP wasn't tied to the enemy that way it was supposed to be. After going back and killing that guy my XP wasn't restored but there was an x as if my XP had fallen into the map. I stopped at a meditation spot and close the game. When I came back to it, I noticed the xp was still there and upon returning to that location my XP was tied to the creature that killed me again. My first strike on that enemy restored by XP. Hope this works for everybody else. Cheers.
