so the XP on P99 is 10% for a 6 member group instead of 20%?

10% seems too little to make it worthwhile to have a full group...

Should increase it, to encourage more grouping IMO.

Groups on here suck. If you don't want to join for for the social aspect that kender was talking about or because you're trying to get a fbss on your level 41 warrior or something... the xp is shitty. Buuuuttt... I don't foresee a change to encourage grouping being put in place. Not classic, etc.

I think a combination of 1) in larger groups at least 1 person tends to think it's ok to slack off and/or afk a lot; 2) full leveling groups tend to form up in spots where a full group is overkill for the # and level available spawns; 3) full groups tend to have a very wide range of xp values, which really hurts the xp gain for the lowest xp members; and 4) full leveling groups too often hang out in zones like oasis, overthere, and dreadlands, where there may be an abundance of stuff to kill but where there is no good ZEM.

Everyone is much better off, imo, with small groups (3-4) or duo or solo, if the only thing you're concerned about is xp and not going insane because of shitty groups. Plus if you're doing small group or duo you still get the social aspect and friendmaking of the game.

100% agree with this post. Don't oversaturate your groups and don't group in non-dungeon zones unless it's something special like an AOE group.
