Ill hunt with any class, and when grouped with hybrids never really noticed myself leveling slower so no issues here.

I group with anyone. On my rogue alt I far prefer a ranger/sk tank as she's such an aggro slut. Xp is so much quicker than with a war.

I don't care what classes I'm grouped with because an exp penalty is better than sitting around getting no exp at all.

Heh.

Your SK friend (and the bard, too) didn't have an xp penalty from some point in velious onwards. And for you to have played to 80, that was at least a significant amount of your total time spent on live, up to potentially all of it depending on when you started playing.
ha, yeah ur right. I started playing just before luclin. Still I think i wouldnt have cared regardless, but yeah.

This min/maxing garbage didn't exist back in 1999. Rolling a hybrid is the most depressing thing ever here. People will not group with you.

With Velious not being anywhere near being released, I think hybrid exp penalties should be removed. Once you break into the 30+ level range, theres too many super twinks from high end raiding guilds that discriminate. I have had friends quit playing here because those chose hybrid and without 1 mil plat in droppables equipped, nobody wants them in their group. The hybrid penalty is driving people away from playing here. Things are barely classic here to begin with considering everyones knowledge of the game, item linking in game, etc. just nix this stupid shit.
Min/maxing, class discrimination, and even equipment discrimination certainly did exist back then. If hybrid penalty drives someone away from playing here, then they simply don't like classic EQ. How can you say things are barely classic, all you got is item linking?

I dont know what you are talking about. Paladin and SK get groups extremely easy because a tank is the 2nd hardest spot to fill and warriors cant hold agro for crap untill they get very good agro weapons and even then you cant comapire them to the agro of an SK or Paladin. Ranger and Druid are hard to get groups with yes. If you are a Ranger, put on anon and tell them you are a warrior, lol. Bard can sometimes be hard to get a group with but they shouldnt be because enchanters are not so easy to find and bard cc with bard mana song is still very good if the bard isnt a tard.

This.

I leave any game as soon as the bros/attitude/keyboard tough guys take over.

Yeah called the people who pretend to think that Steaks is an average red99 player dumb.

They know he is a troll (at least on the forums) and not an average player on the server but they pretend like he is anyway to be assholes and deter people from playing on the server.

So I guess you're right I should have called him an asshole instead of the less offensive "dumb".

the funny part is the min-maxers who won't group with a ranger (who more than make up for their xp penalty in an otherwise 5 man group with decent dps), but refuse to goto zones with a high ZEM
