EXP IS SO SLOW!

Please do this and make a stop-motion video of the XP bar. Guarenteed 5,000 hits on YouTube with that mofo.

Anyway, the cat's already out of the bag on the server about the fix. I figured it'd hurt my SK the worst -- but SKs can still get groups as they're the only class that can hold aggro to any degree prior to dual SSoY procs.

What it's really hurt is my Rogue. I can't solo on him short of begging for a full suite of Cleric/Druid AC buffs + a damage shield + chloro. That means I have to group, and inevitably every group has at least one (often more) hybrids in it. And the XP is pathetic.

So yeah, I'm absolutely /who-ing everyone in the group when I join it and leaving if there's a superfluous hybrid (Bard, Ranger, Monk at this level) present.

At the low level (pre-20), the classes that are getting driven away from even logging on are the non-hybrid non-soloers -- Rogues, Clerics, and Warriors. I haven't seen one of those in a group since the change was made.
