Someone explain group xp vs solo or duo

[oldhead]

never knew the split was based off of your level.

Thought it was equal.. so if you were higher level you lost out.


Do hybrids leech more exp atm? Cus it was like that in classic untill the changed it cus nobody wanted to group with pal, sk, and bards.

Not exactly, it is based off your total xp relative to the total xp of the party. This ratio is certainly related to your level, but not exactly yhe same thing since different race/class combinations require different amounts of xp to gain each level.

Yes, because they require more xp to level, they will have more xp at any given level and will then have a higher ratio, and take a larger portion of the xp split.

I'm sure the devs will change it at the corresponding point of this server's life cycle.

Please note that the maximum amount that it can slow down a group is about 15% (search for other posts by me if you want to read the math behind it), and a 15% difference in kill speed is within the variation of good vs bad groups.

Also, note that it is total xp that governs the distribution, as opposed to character level. As a 45 cleric leading a full group, you would get about the same xp per kill with a 42 paladin tanking or a 46 warrior, but even if the choice were between a 45 pal and a 45 warrior, the group would only have to kill an extra 10-12% to cover the same ground.
