XP penalty vs an XP bonus in grouping.

[Lictor]

I hear inviting rangers gives all other group members bonus exp.

It wasn't a mistake.

The logic is that if two players are equal level, they should level at the same rate when grouped. So if you take a 20.5 cleric and 20.5 shadow knight... they should take an equal number of kills to level to 21.

I did some math about this a while ago.. and its on the forums somewhere. The result is with a full group and one hybrid.. it isn't that big of a deal. Fill the group with hybrids and the clerics and warriors start to hurt.

hybrids have exp penalties because EQ is based off the old DnD rules where multi-classing has roughly the same experience penalty.
