Back at the long-abandoned point:
Yeah I can't see myself playing on green if it's a "warts and all" recreation of the 1999 era game. I played a Rogue then and...god. Rogues were awful at launch.
I fell in love with Hybrids at FV launch. No way in hell I'm going to put up with that XP penalty, and I'm not sure that anyone else will. After all, XP sharing isn't based on penalty - it's based on the current XP each party member has - so someone willing to put up with a TRL SHD's huge penalty at lower levels will be much less likely to do so at higher levels.
Blue already has twinked min-max characters bitching about how adding 2 more people to the group will make their XP bar not move and so they leave to solo - and that's with the race penalties being the only ones left.
