Had a group with 2 rangers (40% x2), a bard (40%), a monk (20%), a shaman (troll 20%), and an enchanter (10%) in Befallen murdering most of the basement. I got the entirety of 19 and 80% of level 20 there in about 3 hours even though like 80% of the mobs were xp greens (light blue). Party had a combined xp penalty of 190%, but still got nearly 2 levels in around 3 hours.
"Don't group with hybrids, you won't get good xp" is dumb.
A far greater impact on your xp will be where you choose to level and the competence of the players. Choose groups based on that, not on existance or non-existance of penalties.
