I may be wrong but since they have 68% now they will have a 28% Racial penalty left?? I think only the 40% is coming off of Hybrids in Velious.

See, I thought it was -20 for Ogres and -26 for Troll Iksar, but I checked Wiki and it had them at 15/20.
So I don't know.
EDIT: Just checked, they're multiplied, not added, that's why they ended up with 68%. So it will be a -15% for Ogres and -20% for Troll/Iksar since there will be no more Hybrid modifier.

I think because back in the day when you were paying $15 a month to play a long grindy game that needed time and dedication people were more hesitant to allow hybrids to join groups because it would slow down a process they were paying real money for. A terrible attitude but somewhat understandable.. I guess.
Now because this classic version has no subscription the attitude of people has changed, for the better. People are less reluctant about group combos and how much time is wasted away because there is no cost to it besides your time. We have to ability to sit back and enjoy and not worry about doing everything you need to do in that month of time before forking out more cash.

It's funny because I never, ever, remember having issues getting a group as a Paladin. Maybe it was due to people not truly understanding the hybrid exp penalty mechanics by that point? After my Paladin, I played a Rogue/Warrior so I never experienced issues there either. However, back when EQ was fresh, I could see that I didn't encounter problems due to the newness of the game.
