I sortof like the hybrid penalties. You can choose ezy-mode (for eq anyway) or really fekking hard mode.
The issue I take with the hybrid experience penalty of 40% was that it reduced experience gains while grouping. On this server we had a LOT of min-maxed minded people who would snub a hybrid for a group slot in preference for anything else they could get to work in that place instead.

If you wanted to advocate that the exp penalty be left in until the timeline patch, I'd say "great" if a custom fix of the penalty being reduced to 20% if you are grouped with another person and reduced to 0% once the group size hits 3 or more. Paladins, SK's, and especially Rangers shouldn't have their pickup group game experience crapped on until Velious, or at least that's my opinion. Especially when it was the opinion of the original game devs when they fessed up to acknowledging the situation and nuking the penalty.
