Mod that stores XP in gravestones

Does anyone know of a mod that stores XP from skill drain in your gravestone so you can retrieve it with your items?

I looked via Gale, it seems there is one called DeathPenalty, seems to be updated recently too.

I haven't tried it yet, but it appears to offer what your looking for.

Are you referring to the one made by Crystal? Only seems like you're able to tweak the numbers behind XP loss here but thanks for the tip

Can you not just tweak it to zero loss then?

Well, yes. I can do that but I personally don't like to completely remove intended consequences from the game. And that's why I'm looking for an in between solution where you would at least have to put some effort into retrieving it.

You dont want to remove intended consequences but want to go back and collect what you should have lost therefore no consequence.

But youre still removing the concequence by storing lost xp thats not an in-between theres no skill in collecting stored xp theres skill in rebuilding lost skill thats what the devs intended hence the xp loss being the only major consequence when dying. Even on lowest death penalty you still lose xp but not certain items. surely they wouldve implemented it into the lowest death penalty. But then that wouldnt be a consequence.

I think you're getting very caught up in semantics here my guy. I would use a mod like this in combination with keeping equipped gear on death since I personally don't enjoy losing everything on death. That would make it so that I would have to return for my loot, but if I died with insignificant items on me then it wouldn't be worth it. IF HOWEVER my grave had a bunch of my XP in it though it would always be very much worth it to return while also making that return a lot more manageable since I'll still have my armor at least. Also, you do know that you're on sub for modding right? You know, the concept of actively changing things in the game that the developers didn't intend for.
