Remove Hybrid Penalty

[karsten]

i'm a level 60 ogre shadowknight and now that i've reached the goals that i dreamed of for months of IRL semi-chubby sleep, I can say with certainty that removing the hybrid penalty after i've leveled up with endanger the integrity of the server

I think group exp is so retarded slow soloing is a more viable option, and i'm a monk.

Fuck

bandaging and soloing DBs as a 32 warrior feels like better exp than grouping

I want to try duo/trio, but I would always feel like a douchebag if I said we were full with only 3 of us standing there

Kunark has been out for much longer than live. It's cool, this server is free and I'm sure it takes a lot of work to make it. I just think people expected velious (and the removal of the ridiculous xp penalty) to be out a long time ago so they can play the hybrid they like without hating the game

Again, I get that recreating a commercial expansion is a big undertaking. I think since it's so overdue, throwing hybrids a bone by giving them the xp boost that should have already happened isn't a crazy suggestion

[Bamzal Sherbet]

they should triple the amount of xp required for each level. screw all this end game bullshit

What happened to logging in and saying "yes, this is what it was like in 99, awesome".

Can you really not live with yourself without being max level? Shit's classic, enjoy it.

Plus, I think having instant cast invis (plus broken single pulling with it), a snare, spammable disease cloud threat, fear (sup pets!), feign death and harm touch are worth the xp penalty.

The way I look at hybrids is that you are leveling 2 toons at once. I mean pallies and rangers get g heal, buffs, loh (basically means someone has to kill u twice) track, ect. That utility should come at a price. I hate to admit it but its true.

[SamwiseRed]

If you don't agree with hybrid penalty roll a warrior.

[Rettii]

I think the argument is more about Hybrid penalty being shared with groups. No one is denying that the utility and benefits of Hybrid deserve a counter balance but in a low pop server nobody wants to group with these hybrids because of the huge group xp need when u invite them.

Here's a quick stat check:

How many Paladins 50+
55+
60

What guild r they in?

Now SK?
Now Ranger?

[heartbrand]

Rangers suck until AA's other than sky bow so that's another reason you don't see any.

[SamwiseRed]

Ye actually I understand what retti is saying. Hybrids can't solo but are shunned by groups [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] it's more reason we need more guilds specifically leveling/casual ones

[Loli Pops]

it is disheartening as an SK seeing two dings to your one ding during a few hour xp dungeon session
