The death penalty

[ShivanAngel]

If its a flat amount lost then the hybrid would have to kill the same number of mobs to gain the lost exp back.

If its a percentage loss the hybrid gets hurt worse.

The hybrid penalty does not make each mob worth X% less, it makes the amount of exp required to level X% more

so if a class/race with a 0% penalty took 100 exp to level, A wood elf ranger would take 140 exp to level.
