Losing EXP on dying

[Mirinee]

I prefer to die and lose EXP too rather than meseta/weapon. Meseta is too light a punishment, and it's far too evil to have to risk losing your weapon!

Aw, poor Tenshi XD.

at high levels the lost experience can be more higher than 50.000.

So it depends on (a) your level and
(b) whether or not you go back to Pioneer.

Is it a percentage calculated from whatever total EXP you need to level up? i.e. How much is 50000 at the 'high level' you mentioned?

Say I'm level 190, and I need another 2 million EXP to get to level 191.

I die and return to Pioneer, losing 50000. 50000 compared to 2 mil is 2.5%. Is that 2.5% a constant, or is EXP lost calculated a different way?
