There are plenty people who hate on hybrids and or bards because of the exp penalty they bring to groups.
This was one point that I read on the WIKI that I didn't understand. I realize the XP penalty for Bards is 40%, but I did not understand how that applies to group XP. Does this mean that my character is going to soak up 40% more xp than the other members of the group?

Example Using random numbers:

My Bard is grouped with 5 others that have no XP modifier.

We kill a mob that gives 600xp. If there were no group members that had a modifier we would each receive 100xp.

But since I am a Bard the xp would be divided like this?

Me - 140xp

Everyone else would get - 92xp?


Mind you, I'm not complaining...I love playing the Bard and I'm not here to get XP as fast as possible in the least. I just want to understand the calculation. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

****EDIT******

Actually I just read through this:

Which explains this situation, although I had to read it few times to get a grasp on it. ;P
