What can be annoying as a troll SK, is being told that a group needs a tank but it would rather wait for one rather than take you in (leaving the likes of a monk to tank while waiting), all because of the experience penalty.
Lunacy in my eyes, perhaps some wisdom in it in others. Troll racial penalty (20%) with hybrid penalty (40%) can slow a group down - but the group will run smoothly with disease cloud taunts and the healer only having to heal the tank, no aggro spraying around and unnecessary heals across the group.

I'd say in general when xping I'd rather have a SK tank then a Warrior tank, just for the utility and aggro generation they bring. The same generally applies to a paladin.
Also, I don't play EQ to level fast so I welcome XP penalties into my group. I know some people do want to level fast and that is their choice, but I personally really can't understand that mentality with EQ, as the journey is as fun or funner in EQ than the destination. For example, I like to have lots of alts just so they can be at different levels and be able to experience different dungeons in the game whenever I want to.
