How exactly does the XP penalty effect the grp?

Trying to make an efficient group is hardly "being a douche". If people want to spend their time xping as fast as possible, they are free to do so.

As someone who has played two hybrids into the 50's, I hated seeing groups pile up multiple hybrids and make some pathetic abortion of a comp where the experience moves backwards.

People who choose to play hybrids know damn well what they are getting into, and it's nobody else's duty to cater to them. I love having an sk/pal/ranger tank, but i'm sure as hell not doubling up on hybrid tanks past 50.

Check that calc above. Grouped with an equal-level ranger and troll shadow knight (for worst penalties) cost me (high elf enchanter) 2.5% more xp than grouping with an equal-level pair of human rogues when I filled out the rest of the group with cleric/warrior/rogue.

Hybrids make a negligible difference on the group xp in real terms.
