Class XP Penalties

[fadetree]

If they agreed to remove the penalties early I would not care if they gave me 'extra' exp or not, as long as I didn't lose any relative position to the the level I'm in.

18 page post.......wonder if a Dev or something will ever chime in and stop us from spinning our wheels.

Tell us it sounds like a good idea, or just tell us to fuck off they don't care it's their server.

Either way lol

I'm sure a dev has chimed in on the 10+ posts identical to this in the past 3-4 years.

Just like they don't answer red variance or server wipe post #2141 any more. It's been answered enough times already. Give it a rest.

Just typed fuck off like 20 times in like 10-12 seconds.

Wouldn't be a huge waste of time....

The hybrid exp penalty was one of the disappointments for me, from p99. Its one thing to try and recreate with a classic approach. but it is another thing to replicate some serious mistakes in the games evolution. Mana stones never should have been in the game. They were broken then and were broken when put in p99. Hybrid penalties do effect groupings, I experienced this on live as well as p99.

These mistakes were done by a development team working a new concept. As well as a player base grasping a new concept. These things were removed for a reason.
Fast forward to P99. Development team working an old concept and a player base that can play the game blind folded. There is a large difference between the 2 timelines.

Mana stones and hybrid penalties for classic sake....... is like smashing your thumb with a hammer, for the sake of nostalgia. It doesnt make sense to repeat a mistake.

I do a lot of grouping in the mid level through the night shift.

At least in our time zone we don't give a shit about penalties, can you do the role is much more important. I've lost more exp on unrezzed deaths and CR downtime from retarded pure classes than has been sucked up by hybrid penalties.

If anything hybrids on p1999 seem to generally be more competent than pures, especially for tanking ... though warrior taunt sucks and I'm an enchanter so I'm gonna be biased there.

For example: Djinosaur is an Iksar SK right, one of the heaviest XP sinks, but he's fucken good at what he does and support players readily join his groups.
