I have yet to have trouble getting a group since these changes despite my heavy class/race exp penalty. I think a group would rather take me as a tank (and thus start killing and getting exp) if they need one rather than wait for a tank who has no exp penalty.
I also noticed that the exp was slow, but it wasn't as horrible as I expected based on the forum posts about it. However, I did notice that it slowed down EXTREMELY when I was grouped with even one player who conned red to me. IMO I think that this isn't that bad as it encourages people to group with a tighter level range and not just piggy back on higher level groups for exp.
Besides, I joined this server because when I joined EQ live back in 2003, all of this content was way obsolete (as well as alot of the mechanics of classic EQ that make it so challenging such as long travel times). I know some people have done all this before but I for one, and others too, are playing on this server to get the classic EQ experience with all the ups and downs.
