To be fair that's actually a classic mechanic and working as intended.

I am not debating that at all. Going the "classic" route is absurd for many reasons... rampant exploits first few weeks of the server (quests, mage swords, etc..), population no where near "classic" levels, resists, etc...

Some of us have been playing the PvP servers on the emulator for over 4 years now... we know what keeps the population around and what deters it.

Rolling a melee on this server is like shooting yourself in the foot, unless you have hours to play, get twinked, and power leveled around the clock.

Should of had group xp bonus from day 1.

Its not too late to correct this mistake. Wipe out this gross 100 percent bonus in effect and instead add 20% grouping bonus for every party member added.

We dont need more druids at 60 solo, we need more players in general to stay and not just quit after LFG for a week straight like poor Jenjen.

after a week of LFG i find myself semi afk eating my lovely luscious dinner only to be rudely chased around by some no life necro (red con to me, so i assume unemployed and lvl 60) named zozo who then got mad cos i zoned away from him (obviously!) and sent me some rather lol-tastic tells. then another lvl 60 shows up. good times for lonely melees on red 99 pals!

now where did i put my nintendo ds [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Zozo you can almost always find soloing.

My point is proven.

Need group xp bonus now, before we lose Jenjen and all the players her type represents.

Time running out.

bigger issue is no clerics but thats to be expected on a 75 player box where you can only group within your guild

And VERY greedy enchanters more often then not steal clerics from melee groups to go duo with and get that "uber xp".

If only we had group xp bonus instead, they'd be less inclined to do this.

[Nirgon]

Maybe less people in Nihilum should be greedy and xp (rest of server) shouldn't suffer as a result.

Let me know when you think this will save the server like Kunark btw.

Group exp bonus does make more sense than a flat exp bonus.

[Nirgon]

If some things were correct out of the gate, you wouldn't be debating this.

The xp needed is a direct relation to the fact there's almost no one to group with, and new people won't stick around here for more than a week if there's no groups and xp sucks.

This xp buff is an effort to push more people to the level range where most of the current population is.

We need exp decrease, full item/bag loot.
