Yes, respectfully, the math above is not correct.

Let’s imagine a 5-person group of all priests (no exp bonus or penalty) of equal level kills a mob that grants 1000 exp.
M1 Druid: 20% of the 1000 exp = 200 exp
M2 Druid: 20% of the 1000 exp = 200 exp
M3 Druid: 20% of the 1000 exp = 200 exp
M4 Druid: 20% of the 1000 exp = 200 exp
M5 Druid: 20% of the 1000 exp = 200 exp

Now let’s replace one druid with a Human shadowknight. He requires 40% more exp to level up. From each kill, he should get 40% more exp than the druids take. However, they’re still sharing the same exp pie. This means he takes a little bit from the others.
M1 Human SK: 25.9% = 259 exp
M2 Druid: 18.5% = 185 exp
M3 Druid: 18.5% = 185 exp
M4 Druid: 18.5% = 185 exp
M5 Druid: 18.5% = 185 exp
You’ll notice 185 * 140% = 259.
And the SK’s exp bar appears to go up by the same amount the druids’ exp bars go up.
