Yes, exp penalties are applied before the exp gets split. So with one hybrid in your group. The whole group is getting 40% less per kill.
Absolutely false, it amazes me that there’s a new thread perpetuating this myth on about a weekly basis. Hybrids require 40% more XP, monks 20%, INT casters 10%.

Assuming everyone is exactly the same level, hybrids get 1.4x, monks 1.2x, and INT caster 1.1x more XP than a non-penalty toon in same group. So 5 clerics/druids/shamans and a paladin in a group, the whole group is awarded full XP, but paladin gets 22% of it and each other gets 16%.

With all the incredible game content/mechanics knowledge in the p99 community, the number of people that cannot understand this is just incredible. All groups get the full XP value from the mob, and all groups use exactly the same formula to divvy up that XP; the penalties and bonuses are just modifiers to individual characters in the formula.

For relevant joke, see sig below.
