Ok going to go over this again, This thread comes up every few days/week and someone new thinks it should be changed. The exp penalties are from D&D, it was nothing about sticking it to people who played hybrids or some cruel joke. It's a basic D&D rule that when you make a hybrid, let's use Pally as an example. I actually made a pally in like 1994 on a D&D AOL online game, I had a HUGE penalty because my pally could tank pretty much as good as a warrior but also had the ability to heal and Lay Hands. It's like DUEL CLASSING, you don't get to be treated equally if you make someone who has two classes combined.
It's just part of D&D history, remember a lot of things from this game came from D&D and if you have a problem with the xp penalty go play another class and stop complaining. I made a halfling druid as my first char because I knew I could solo and lvl up quickly, if you choose a pal/sk/bard or whatever, you know about the exp penalty, you could easily make a warrior or enc and lvl up faster if that's the issue.
Kaylen has the right attitude, if you want to level up a pally or whatever, don't think about it.
