Grouping on a Druid is vastly superior to quadding. You need a duo partner. Go to Kedge, Plane of Fear, or Kael, and though it takes practice, it's a lot of fun. On my druid I duoed Fear with a Necro and the exp was comparable to being powerleveled. The break in can be a tad tricky, Necro helps there too. You want to get to the north wall, just north of the flame wall. He can rez you there.

In Kael, you want a lowest level dire wolf. On breaks, either have your partner save you or use lowest level Fear on breaks. You can smash arena. Prepare for dispels though. Clicky DS gloves help a lot. I duoed with a shaman a lot.

In Kedge, you want to get a good pet. One of the named, like Cauldronbubble or seahorse matriarch. These mobs are dramatically stronger than anything else. You can kill Phinny and Undertow a bunch. Kedge takes some getting used to though, like learning to cast against walls so you don't get push interrupted.
I mean no. If you are quading 6:40 spawns your xp will be much faster than duoing

As with all charm groups, the key lies in how good they are. A good PoFear duo is insane exp, it was faster than Chardok PL.

A lot those out there soloing will group, they just aren't seeking out the effort of organizing one. I'm getting way better XP soloing on my twinked Monk, so I'm not going to spend the time and energy finding five other players, get them all to one location, and fill in gaps as they come and go. If someone else does the work, then I'll take the slower XP just to hang for a bit and help out some players who don't have the easy solo XP luxury I do. It's also pretty fun to run into another equally twinked character and partner/trio up to wreck the area even harder.

The very best (pure) xp group I ever had was on my 56 fungi / epic rogue. Slabs. Hole. Very weak docks group not doing shit / wiping / whatever.

High 50s fungi / epic / monk, high 50s epic bard. The monk had beads. The bard definitely had Froggy helm.

It was the most insanely efficient trio I've ever personally been a part of. A masterpiece of pure unadulterated dps, control, and zero need for any direct heals ever. Props to both of those guys before I stumbled across them, they were doing fine on their own. My rogue just added the boomstick they were looking for.
