Way i look at it is grouping with that group of 60s you mention just earns more pie to compensate for the other 10/11ths you mention dragging you down. This is in two ways, more pies, the 60s will hit harder, take less damage etc. Killing more mobs faster. 2nd, bigger pies, you can go to higher mobs that give more exp. Overall ive been happy with this balance enough to not factor it unless the person of higher level is sooo much higher than the mobs we face that their benifits saturate. Interesting discussion point thou, thx.
I agree with the balancing issue however with the zones populated the way they are, often times we are constrained by the amount of mobs available to a camp.

I noticed this mainly when camping crypt in seb with a bunch of 55s versus a group of 4 60s, myself, and a 54 cleric. I got a considerable amount more exp with the 55s than the 60s, and killed the same set of mobs.

This rings true for pretty much every heavily contested camp, I believe. Just an interesting facet of the game I hadn't considered until now.
