Do You Get Xp If You Are Dead?

[(PSN)iBoiz]

I convinced my friend to start playing warframe and we are now working on leveling him up on Defense missions. The problem is that he dies easily(he chose Loki as a start frame) so I have to keep reviving him. I was thinking of telling him to die and just wait while I'll be killing everything and getting us xp. Would it work? Would he get xp if he is dead?

Not sure about the whole dead exp thing,but maybe help him out with some basics about Loki and tell him to use his invis and dummy more. Might help keep it more fun for him instead of just lay there while you play.

learn him how to run properly to dodge most ennemy shot (yes that possible)

I don't know. I would suggest having him use decoy, often, and go invis if he must.

 

If you're a loki in a defense mission and you don't have a live decoy out, you're doing it wrong.

Yup, I told him already how to play and he got the basics but he still dies to toxic ancients or if his invisibility gets off, or if the enemy sneaks up on him.

We play vs infested mostly, I guess I should just get Trinity or Oberon then lol

Hopefully the tutorial will help him out when it comes out today.

Do we know that for a fact? I haven't found anything on the subject, and haven't spend enough time dead to notice one way or the other. It's worth noting, though, that even if you DO gain XP while dead, your location is probably considered to be where you died, and since XP gained from group kills has a distance limit... even if you technically can get XP, it will stop as soon as the group moves on.

 

So in conclusion... dying is generally not recommended.

Vauban compliments Loki nicely.

absolutely.

 

the best way to help a new player is to help them learn the art of avoiding incoming Damage entirely. mobility is our most powerful Offense and Defense.
