I understand the math behind the weighting calculations for exp for each player, I was just unaware that racial/class penalties were included in the calculation.

If that's true (and I guess it is), I can at least understand WHY people would be hesitant to add a hybrid. Although, as stated, it's not the only factor, but at least I understand why it really IS a factor.

Interesting side note: if one applies this same logic, the "I don't want to group with someone who needs a lot of exp to level" logic, people should be way MORE hesitant to add someone currently in a hell level to the group. Even being in level 30, the easiest hell level, a much larger exp impact than being a hybrid. See attached plot.

Just sayin. I don't hear anyone making that argument. Makes me think any prejudice against hybrids on the exp penalty basis is largely based on emotion and less on facts/data.
