It would be nice

You've seen the game's code and you're a coder? That's the only way you can say for certainty how long something would take to implement.

None of us outside of SE know how long it would take to add what you want to the game.

However, what I do know is that any time spent on something means time not spent on something else.

And with this, you are the only person I've ever heard asking for progress on leveling to be slowed (no one else has replied to this thread saying they'd also want something like this). So people in your shoes are likely a vast minority.

Which means on a list of things to add to the game, your request I would prioritize as very low. Because even if it is something that wouldn't take long, it is still time that the coder could be spending working on something that more people would get use out of.

So I would advise you to just do whatever you can to slow the exp gain that you can in game and/or figure out a way to come to terms with just ignoring things in game that you aren't ready for yet. Just because something is unlocked for you, doesn't mean that you have to immediately stop what you're doing and learn about it or deal with it.

Even skills, because until you start getting to end game content, as long as you're not holding the group back from progressing, no one's going to care that you aren't using every spell in your arsenal according to the meta for your level.

Because I'd put the chances of this being added to the game before you're max level at extremely slim.

You dont have to know what code they are using exactly to know how simple of a task it is. are even with python you can do something like this using how they lock exp for trail accounts with ans and if code lines in 3min then lock the situation between a click or text line you choice

Again you're talking about things that may not be as simple as you think if you've not seen the code they use.

Just because it exists for trial characters doesn't mean that it's something that can be easily put onto non-trial characters.

They'd have to add the option to the NPC. They'd have to make sure there were plenty of warnings that no exp gain can be granted while on that class.

They'd also have to likely put a reminder on log in for players who logged out on the exp stop class or swap to the class to remind players that the class is on no exp gain to avoid the countless "bug" threads from players who forgot they put the class on no exp gain.

They'd still likely get reports from players who just clicked past those pop ups without actually reading them.

They'd also have to very rigorously test it to make sure that there are no errors with it. Because the last thing they need is players getting stuck with no exp gain on and not being able to swap off of it.

It's still something that I wouldn't hold your breath on being added any time soon given the fact that it appears to be something not many people want.

That all being said, I do hope that one day they do add in something like this for players like yourself, even if it is just a exp gain reduction item as opposed to a completely stopping of exp gain. I just don't feel that this is something that's high on their priority list.
