D2 Experience "Cap"

[crazynut]

Read on these forums there is an experience cap of 8.4 million for a single kill.

Not so sure about that or that there is a "cap".

Playing 1.13 I edited my toon to have maxed runed items filled with +461% exp jewels (+3227% exp/ea). Then filled my inventory with +461% exp charms.

I was level 62 when I ran Baal normal throne room. When I was done I was level 51. Took the now level 51 toon and ran Baal normal again. Ended at level 17.

Actual negative experience applied to the toon and loss of level. Not a flip. No gain in stat or skill points. Actually lost experience and levels.

Thinking maybe 8.4 million is NOT a cap, but what the programming can handle. As in if you go above 8.4 million in a single kill it bugs and goes negative on you. Funny.

Or perhaps you used a hack/mod (seeing how those experience charms don't exist) and that hack/mod had a bug that caused you to loose experience?

Of course I did, as in "I edited my toon".

Hero Editor.

However, with less total experience boost there is no error, had to really max out to do this. That would mean game, not editor. Not a bash on D2, just an observation. No way in normal game would have 10K+ exp bonus situation.

I don't think the use of that program is allowed here (or even it or it's effects allowed to be discussed) this is a legit forum.
