Yeah, I've talked about this in other topics. We've calculated out the exp, we ran the numbers, checked the difference and it's amazing.

Essentially a good soloer, Mage, can kill 6 mobs in 5 minutes at a good camp spot with little downtime.

A group, to get comparable exp, would have to kill about 25-30 mobs in 5 mins which is impossible.

It'd be hard to find a place with 25-30 mobs that respawn every 5 mins. It's hard for a cleric to heal the tank through 25-30 mobs every 5 mins. A wizard cannot nuke 25-30 mobs in 5 mins and still have mana.

The list goes on and on...

Basically the group exp bonus is 10% now, went to 20% in 2003, then went to 80% in 2004.

I hope the devs give the server some kind of non-classic change, we need incentive to group up.
This is an argument for nerfing mages, not incentivizing grouping...
