what sort of exploit is this and what does it do?

i see people lure a goblin in Tor fortress and they let it kill them on purpose. they keep repeating this hundreds of times. what exactly are they doing it for?
what sort of exploit is this?

it isnt an exploit,they just dlevel them self to keep farming the mobs and not lvl.

If they want to farm shuta, they need to be level 29 at most. So when they are level 29 & 99,9% to become level 30, they keep "suiciding" so they lose -3% each time they get killed, and eventually become level 29 & 0% xp so they continue farming for shuta.

so the question is do they get another skill point when they reach 30 for the second time?

they dont reach 30. if they are like said before at 9x% they kill themselves and loose 3% so lets say someone has 95%-3%=92% and than thay can repeat that till they have 0% so thats lvl29 and 0%

so why do it in Tor fortress? just go out there and kill yourself?
so i think the answer is that it gives u negative xp so you have to work extra hard to lvl

they do it in Tor fort, cuz mobs are not far from spawn point XDDD

and they are like lvl4X

All good farmers have done tht at least once^^

the worst is when u see me killing ma lvl87 sorc in ice rofl

if he is 88 i'm fked up for light farm^^

lol i remember those days.
