Yea well NM are difficult just so your satisfaction will be great and you actually having the feeling of just having survived a tough battle.
Why do you think it's just a matter of luck, I think strategy could be a big role in this so you won't have to die like a lemming.
And I read from a Dev note that you won't level or rank down because of exp or sp loss.
And the implementation of exp and or sp loss doesn't mean the system will automatically be harsh, that depends on the percentage of loss. And I think the people working at SE know great losses of exp or sp per death won't add much to anyone's enjoyment of the game.
