Why I don't like to group

Really, once you consider the ENTIRE picture (hybrid penalties are a huge variable and can negatively effect your exp of course, but not all classes have a penalty and mages/necros do) it comes out to be more like 2-3 mobs a minute which is completely doable.

Not going to get too deep into this but in all the years I played EQ, In the best groups I ever remember being in, I do not recall consistently pulling 2-3 MOBS a minute... that's a mob every 20-30 seconds.

On the other hand, even as the best soloer uber necro/mage in the world I can't see doing that pace either.

Sooner or later, the MOBs in the pullable area run out. Also, solo or group sooner or later you will have to med/heal/buff (I guess an unbuffed mage pet or necro pet doing all the killing would eliminate this).

I guess what I am saying is that there is some exageration going on about kill rates on this thread I think.

.... or I just suck; also a possibility.
