Similar meaning the hybrid was one level higher than me. Of course it would take more exp, but that doesn't account for the low leveling pace just because you have a hybrid one level higher

Bottom line here is you feel like the exp was too slow but are spending time posting about it instead of proving it.

As I already said, when your gut clashes with other people's guts, and you have no data vs. staff who have been running this for years and players who have tested specifically... well it's time to actually put in some minimal amount of actual effort to prove your point.

There is a reason hybrids were highly unwelcome in groups prior to velious.

You think rangers jokes are just jokes?

Yeah, I’m not trying to hate on hybrids, but the one-two punch of a hybrid who is like four levels higher than you can just straight up stop your XP bar.

Yea last night a lvl 10 Troll SK joined our group of level 6 and 7s and it was DISGUSTING how much it slowed down our xp.

I hung around for another hour then just left. I'd say it reduced our xp speed by AT LEAST 50%.

Getting past the pre level 10 slump while grouping is a feat of willpower. A lot of people don't understand how that mechanic works and get frustrated with it. It gets a lot better as you're all hitting 10 and evening out on overall xp totals.

Exactly.

How about that Michigan game? Fuckin Irish [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

In a group today, consistently chain pulling whites and yellows and reds, it has taken over an hour and a half just to get one yellow at level 6.

I don't wanna call you a liar or anything but something seems off about these numbers. I don't see how all of that information could be correct unless your group was 6 Ogre Rangers punching things to death.

Even the Everfrost tundra group I was invited to last night gained experience at a faster rate, and that was definitely not optimal. And I'm twice your level.

Besides, no one really cares about the actual exp you get from Blackburrow compared to the gnoll fang experience. That's why people still kill stuff there after its gone green.

Seems fine to me. I solo'd my druid to the mid levels when I first started blue in 2010 and my current druid feels somewhat faster because I know about some quests. I remember my first group was in HHK. It was so boring and so slow that I almost immediately began looking for a replacement. Then I began doing trios in the late 20s and the exp was amazing.

It's slow as shit and even slower in groups. That's the same all the way up, tbh. If you want the quickest exp and have any ability to solo (*I mean practical ability, not bind wounding after every kill or spending 10 minutes medding after 4 mobs) you are better off not grouping. Without any gear whatsoever that is a limited pool of people though, so eventually you'll need to farm money or get groups at gear camps.

Well that and there's a ton of people so you need to group or wait for everyone to outlevel you if you want any mobs.

I rolled a ranger so eli5: Solo until 8-10ish rather than group if i dont wanna commit sudoku out the gate?
