So, I just played through the turtorial dungeon as well as the very first Orc raid and I noticed that I don't always get experience after battle.

I snooped around the net a bit and found the claim that: "Enemies that are killed by a lingering effect like burning or poison or an NPC don't give experience."

Now, if that is true and the enemies in the game are limited, doesn't that mean that I am basically punished for fighting smart instead of just hacking away with my weapon or using direct damage only spells?
