For example, 20,126,064 total experience is required for a level 67 character to gain level 68: a death in Nightmare would result in 1,006,303 experience loss, while one in Hell would result in 2,012,606 experience loss.
 * 75% of this lost experience can be recovered if the player is able to recover the corpse without saving and exiting.
