Basically, you have to calculate lower values here but still in a progressive scale so each level is harder than the last. It isn't a problem using the lower numbers because the client actually get sent the % of xp relative to the next level and not the actual numbers.

The first problem this will produce will be that players who have high exp gained from playing will jump (or drop) many levels. I put temproray code in that limited increases/decreases of level to 1 and corrected the exp needed for the next level. After the first leveling, it corrects itself.

The next problem you will run into after that is exp gained on kills. It will give way to much, because it is assuming the old calculation. So you have to reduce the exp awarded. Luckily, there's a variable i the variable table for that.

Hope this helps.
