Game Mechanics: hell level penalties being shared for level 51+?

[Lazortag]

If a level 50 is grouped with a level 51, is it intended that the level 50's exp goes much slower than it normally would? Maybe I'm wrong but that seems to be how it's working, which doesnt seem right.

[Grizlor]

Exp share is based on the total exp the player has, not level. A 50 halfling warrior takes less exp out of a group than a 42 troll SK.

[Lazortag]

Right, but a level 49 player and a level 45 player won't have their exp bar move at the same speed, because hell level penalties are not shared. However, from what I've been seeing, the penalty for level 51 is being shared. Unless level 51 doesn't count as a "hell" level?

It seemed that way last night in Karnors, but I think I was in my high 40's in KC on live so hard to know for sure.

There is no hell level penalty to exp earned Giegue. Hell levels just require more xp to complete. (which is why their bars fill at a different rate)

Check my post on xp division in the P99 FAQ for more details, or bug me in vent some time.

Dumesh, I'm aware of this. My problem is that hell level penalties ARE being shared for levels 51 to 60, which isn't correct, unless those don't actually count as hell levels.
