the troll SK group has a 68% + 44% penalty, and the warrior/rogue group has a 13.55% + 14.5% bonus XP. Big difference in XP gain
Only if the cleric/warrior/rogue group actually handles their pulls consistently. More goes in to the XP rate of a group than the class make-up of the group. Yes, the cleric/SK/Monk group has to kill more things to gain the same XP. But if they can kill faster, avoid long fights because of better pulling, and pull more often because of less down time due to the previous two points, they can kill more things per hour.
