Now don't get me wrong, I believe in the right of free association/disassociation and this is not why I call said douche bag a douche bag. That is beside the point anyway.

How do you guys feel about grouping with hybrid classes, particularly with Paladins, in light of the drain we are on group exp? Does the Paladin's skill set offset the penalty in your opinion?

A properly played classic Paladin tank can add a hell of a lot to the group in the way of stuns. Once Velious comes out they will be null and void because a good portion of Velious mobs are stun immune.
