Estu is right. But if either of them hands in crushbone belts or does other exp-giving quests then they won't level at the same rate. That's probably why he specified level 2, since the turn-in item gives you exp.
I actually specified level 2 because of a point made in an earlier thread: if EXP is divided according to TOTAL EXP, then a level 1 halfling and a level 1 iksar always grouping together will always have the same amount of EXP each, since they both presumably start at 0. Then the halfling really would level much faster than the iksar. If you get them both to 2, though, then they will have EXP proportional to their EXP penalties/bonuses.

However, maybe the EQ devs took this oversight into account and made some fix for the level 1 case, like starting out everyone with some unseen starting EXP proportional to their EXP penalty/bonus. Anyway, it's kind of a stupid special case; what's important is if you both start at level 2, at least, then you'll both reach level 60 at the same time.
