Experience Penalties?

[Swish]

Hybrid penalties are 40%, which covers:-

Paladins
Shadow Knights
Rangers
Bards

If you combine say, a SK and a troll together the penalty is 67 or 68%. Not quite sure on the formula but someone will know - its 40% hybrid penalty with a 20% troll racial penalty, how people get the 67-68% I don't know.

Is it noticeable? Got my SK to 41 twice and delevelled to 40 and its the most slow going experience I've ever taken part in...its noticeable. Just logging the cleric in there's a noticeable difference.

Penalties are multiplicative.

This means that a Shadowknight (1.4 xp needed per 1 a cleric needs) and a Troll (1.2 xp needed per 1 a wood elf needs) are combined, you need 1.4*1.2=1.68 xp per 1 xp that a wood elf druid needs.

Yes! Thanks dude [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]


...as for monks at 20%, feign death and mend probably saves them enough deaths to offset the penalty? Just a guess.
