As for finding groups, you could always play two characters. The one that you want to group with, and another that can solo if you can't find/make a group.

This. A thousand times this.

Yes, this is what I do. I have a character/characters I'd like to group with for playing when I can devote a lot of time and I have some classes which I play because I don't have a lot of time available or I can't find a group after a lot of trying..

FYI - you often get more than one hybrid in a group

Sorry if this has been answered before, but does the hybrid xp penalty stack with other hybrids in the group? Or is the highest penalty the only one applied? Just curious

I didn't solo at all during live because my gear sucked, but I have done some soloing here to finish off the last bubble in a level a couple times. I typically get half a blue bubble of exp per kill, and that's for a blue mob that poses almost no threat. Hell if I didn't have to sit for 20 minutes after ever 2 mobs I drop I might actually do it more often. Back when light blue mobs gave the same experience it was even better, I could kill 3-4 of those before I needed to rest.

Grouping is way more entertaining.

Yes, players that group provide me with a lot of entertainment as a rogue. Bad pull? Is the group near-by killing the same faction? Run next to them and tap Hide, wait a moment for the tank of the group to do some more damage, then split a single off of it! Even after the fight, the entertainment continues in /ooc.

Part of the problem is only having to do 1 dmg to get full xp with a pet.

Is this true? I was under the impression you had to do 51% to get xp. I know for sure that you do for charm pets (enc solo).
