You pulled the race card again... this isn't about race! I have NEVER heard anyone complain about race exp penalties.

I have no data to back this up, but I'd say at worst it's even, but still irrelevant since we aren't talking race.
3 blues at level 54+ is a lot of experience. And with 60 levels... 3 blues per level multiplied by 60 levels... you see where I'm going? Not to mention that you're killing slower because rogue dps > ranger dps, so kills per hour goes down, furthering the gap in experience gain. The point is, there is a reason for the discrimination. If rogues had the 40% penalties, and rangers the 10% bonus, people would invite more rangers. They bring LESS to the table (as a dps slot) and require more experience for everyone grouped with them, making them less desired.

Sorry, can't help but play the race card when the last few posts of mine started by quoting someone who played a troll shadowknight and commented that with him and a bard and a ranger in the group, the pulls were great but the xp was slow.
And actually when you consider 13% over the course of 60 levels? It depends on how you look at it. 13% over 60 levels is the difference between being a couple blues into 59 and being a freshly-dinged 60.
And rangers don't bring less to the table than rogues do. They bring less DPS to the table, yes. But so does everyone else, and yet you still don't see any groups of 6 rogues running around being successful now do you?
