The hell with that. Won't even consider touching one of those classes. So stupid.

Why would anyone keep this classic aspect? Verant was so dumb they thought SKs without lifetaps and Rangers were OP and needed a nerf when they were already both objectively inferior to other classes.

I dunno, man. I kinda feel before Kunark itemisation and skill caps hybrids were a lot better than warriors.

Don't monks have a huge XP penalty too, no one cared to exclude them on blue.

Class penalties are removed a couple months into Velious.

Penalties are as such: Paladin/Shadow Knight/Ranger/Bard 40%, Monk 20%, Enchanter/Necromancer/Wizard/Magician 10%. Warrior has a 10% bonus, Rogue has a 9.5% bonus. These modifiers stack with the racial modifiers (10+ for Barbarian, 15 for Ogre, 20 for Troll and Iksar) in a multiplicative sense, so a Troll Shadow Knight has a total 68% penalty, and an Iksar Monk has a 44% penalty.

The other part that people commonly forget is that experience is divided across the group based on the various players' experience totals, not class or level. Hence inviting a lower-level Ranger or Paladin will "suck up" less experience from the rest of his group than a higher-level Warrior might. In practice this is too complicated for the average player to bother learning, so hybrids in general (and Rangers especially) simply end up discriminated against while the other factors are largely ignored.

Can we get two servers for this PLEAASSEE, shutdown red for it. The population will easily be 2,000 thats way to many people for classic EQ.

Red is the only good box on P99... No thanks to the shutdown.

Do you even classic? 2000 WAS the common peak population of Everquest servers in the classic era.

True, though to be fair, not at launch, and there wasn't the same kind of race for levels. On Green it will definitely be really tough to find space to level for the first few months.
