Bottom line, if it takes hybrids longer to learn a new level, then they can't keep up with their friends. That, however, is fairer than letting the entire group suffer the penalty. Perhaps it should have been an option - you could suffer it alone, or you could share the penalty with the group. Perhaps it would be a toggle button in the options window under the general tab: "Hybrid Penalty shared with group: √" I think that would have been better than one universal answer. Not everyone plays with a close friend/relative.
But... the whole problem with this is that maybe hybrids are too powerful??? Too much utility? Why should hybrids even have an exp penalty in the first place??? If the system is balanced then you wouldn't need this. I don't think the experience penalty is hte best way to handle this, but.... I think that anything is possible, if you work at it. I think it could work, and I'm going to go into this thinking that. This is an eq classic server, so I'll accept it and act like this is the way it always was. If you go about it from that frame of mind, things are a lot easier and fun. If you accept something, it usually works out and new solutions to old problems present themselves that you never would have discovered had you never accepted it. If you refuse to accept it, you're just welcoming problems from all directions to come and, in time, legitimize/embolden your rejection of it. | ||

maybe i didnt explain it correctly .. groups didnt suffer a penalty from hybrids in thier group ... lets say a mob has 600 exp total , 6 people in group 1 of them hybrids , everyone gets 100 exp except the hybrid gets 140 exp
groups were not penalized from hybrids, hybrids got exp that wasnt actually there does that make more sense on how it was ? | ||

It just seems self evident to me there should not be a hybrid xp penalty.
What are you guys looking at though? I mean why exactly do you think one is justified? Rangers and sk's have some features that negate some frustrating parts of the game. But pallies? I just don't get it. I really don't. | ||

What exactly do you dev types want talked about here?
I doubt I'll post much, but if I do I confine it to what you want. So exactly what kind of feedback are you looking for? You don't want to hear about class balance, experience penalties, bind locations, favoritism, sol ro quests, planes, mayong mistmoore, melee problems, etc. So what are you guys looking for? I'm not good at it but I could write some ghoulbane porn. | ||

I think what people are saying is, they dont mind that it is there, but it deffinately is not the way it was on live.
I know this because I had a paladin friend that played with me every night, we grouped exclusively together, wether in groups or just us two together. we never had a problem with him falling behind by multiple levels even at higher levels, and now it only takes a few levels to get out of sync and that is at low levels. there is something wrong with the way this works in groups atm, I can see it being there for small groups/solo players, but maybe something needs tweeked in full groups. basically, friends are outleveling their paladins/ranger friends and therefore causing problems finding groups. I just want to say, I love this server and am happy the way it is, just want to see fine tuning to make it even better, please keep up the good work. Wildir | ||
