Two Boxing, Soloing, Grouping ...
 
After all the discussion over boxing and how it is needed because of people soloing etc. If the developers changed one thing from classic to make the server custom I think it should be removing the ability for any class to solo or make a huge xp penalty for solo. This or increasing the bonus to group XP to where it is more attractive than solo. The more people in your group the more xp you get. 2 gets more than 1, 3 gets more than 2 etc.

It would be nice to see people preferring to group over solo.

Remove hybrid penalties that effect the entire group and you would accomplish this with less hassle.

That is true indeed. Maybe hybrid/race penalties are not present in group but only when soloing? That would take care of it.

This would further make Druids and rangers extinct. In a mom/max group which is what many 6 player groups are, those two classes don't fit in any slot as the best. You want cc a bard or enchanter would be superior. Healer, cleric. Backup healer, shaman. DPS, rogue, monk, wizard, magician, etc...

Don't nerf solo exp that's just retarded.

This.

And what about classes that are built for soloing like mages and necros? Why punish them?
A necro/mage can add a lot to a group, but I didn't roll a necro so I could group. If I want to group I play my druid.

There's too much to take into consideration than just making solo exp not worth it.

Grouping is often one of the most anti-social things you can do in EQ. Why do you want to force it upon people?
