Is it gone yet?

[Jauna]

The Hybrid exp penalty I mean.

There is only so much of being a half naked catgirl in final fantasy who punches things to death
There is only so many blasters and lightsabers I can handle in star wars
And warcraft has been dead to me for close to a year now and feel no hype for "we want the burning crusade audience" xpac
And there is only so much suffering I can take as a bard who prefers to group

When will hybrids stop suffering?

Give it another 3-5 weeks.

Just think of how many levels you could have gained if you played through it though instead of waiting.

no one would want me anyways because penalty..


Hybrids welcome in red groups, XP bonus negates it.

Also god damnit swish, normally you have these cute to interesting to neat looking signatures but this one is just fucking horrifying.

If he played through it there wouldnt be any reason to care about the penalty :P

You can never have too much half-naked catgirl.

Also, if you don't want to be half-naked, put some clothes on. That game has a vanity system!

[maskedmelon]

Perhaps it is the other half nekkid cat girls with whom he takes issue... Alas, there is no remedy for that.

Is anyone going to want you without the penalty?

Make yourself worth grouping with. Good players can get groups no matter their class.

If that is all that is holding someone back from playing/leveling a hybrid, then they probably won't like it after the patch anyway.

[Gilder]

I used to care about hybrid penalites too, then I rolled a character on red.

Troll Shadowknight -68% penalty doesn't even register to me anymore.

[Chrysus]

No need to get their hopes up. By classic timeline it should be October 19 2015, or June 6 2016 with the p99 x4 timeline modifier.

Having a fun time sweating my ass off to 60. So close i can taste it! in b4 quit at 59?

Last week was the week I discovered what Absinthe was and I gatta say..

is the hybrid penalty gone yet?

[newagemystic]

To the other point, does the assling racial and rogue/warrior xp boost stick around after the hybrid penalty leaves?

[am0n]

Only class penalties (or bonus, for rogue and warrior) will be eliminated. Any racial penalty (or bonus, for Halflings) will remain.

[thufir]

Never understood hybrid penalty hate. If you group it's all spread out anyway. Bards are generally in demand in groups, due to cc and regen/clarity songs. And if you are solo swarm kiting instead, the vast amounts of xp you get for killing a zone overwhelm that penalty.

I would even go so far to say the penalty is deserved for most hybrid classes. Bards are incredibly versatile in group and solo situations. Shadowknights and Paladins are both better aggro tanks than Warriors, who only recently acquired a reason to live with Velious raid mobs.

Rangers... well, ok. But just them.

[am0n]

Rangers... well, ok. But just them.

One unfortunate aspect of this server is we won't see all of the improvements to Rangers that came with Luclin. I wouldn't mind a "partial" Luclin, i.e. the class balance improvements/AAs for existing classes without all the other aspects. Alas, we won't see that.

[maestrom]

Hopefully some of the classic inspired custom content will focus on class balance issues.

There was some murmur of epic quest styled events for AA abilities like endless quiver.

Or did I make that up?

[phacemeltar]

Bards are incredibly versatile in group

this. any group that turns down a bard for hybrid penalty is probably not deserving the boost that a bard has to offer. i get that multiple hybrids can be ridiculous, but if they dont realise the benefit a bard brings (debuff, cc, regen, evac, pulling, etc) then they probably wouldnt be getting very good xp to begin with.

[newagemystic]

The penalties made much more sense in classic, when stat gear was a rarity. Once Kunark hit, it was stupid, as warriors and pure melee could gear to much better base stats

I think he might of deleted it himself, it was a furry dressed up like their pet and just looking into the camera never moving. Then the furry blinked.

I played though both Amnesia games and never felt that level of horror before.
