Default Warrior Vs Hybrid in Group/Guild XP Race

If you were a guild or group, that felt safe there would be a normal or a sub-normal level of threat, to allow confident xping:

Would you rather invest in a bunch of Paladins, Shadowknights or maybe even Rangers, for massive XP guild or group grinds, and just few warriors?

Or would you rather just invest in warriors.

I love exping with wars the most.

I love exping with pals.

I sorta enjoy exping with SKs.

I love some SKs.

The one or two times I have grouped with a ranger they've always pulled their weight. An RP themed guild of Rangers, warriors, paladins, and druids, bards, clerics. Would be really cool.

hmm... yea after posting it I realized in the beginning on green everyone was just casters anyway. But I'm sick of correcting myself, to be a super EQ expert when I really am not, though I wish I was, so I didn't edit the post and let it go.

But I think it might be legitimate to consider hybrid XP vs Warrior.

I view the world as if it starts with kunark because I want to make super everquest start that way. So it may be more legitimate to see hybrid XP penalty from 1-60 on kunark.

Should have thought more in the post but my brain damage brain goes in an out of things, and "Hey I want to start a cool post" reigned more than thinking it out before going to sleep."

Trying to hold some legitimacy in my post still. Do you think from 50-60 in kunark warrior may have advantage over XP grind than SK/Pal?

For sure. A little more DPS and HP from war and root is amazing for grinding good EXP mobs. Blues, dark greens.

SK and pals are good for hard fights and casters. Camping items they can be invaluable when going after a challenging to pull named.. there's a lot safer mobs that give better exp than named and doesn't matter if 2 or 3 come.

I think one of the points of the question was also:

If on a new red pvp server, In RTS, a common strategy is to hope for no attack and mass up resources.

Pals and SKs would be used it combat only after the mass XP increase.

It depends who you have with you. If you have good group composition then a warrior is the best. I don’t know to what degree the aggro problem is a problem when working with people that aren’t idiots. The warrior takes hits the best and has dps at the same time a true champ

The sk and paladin both can bring more hate in (from what I have heard) so that may allow certain group compositions to do more like it a wizzie wants to cast spells on mobs with more than half HP or something

I guess still a dumb post because this isen't shadowbane where massing may be more realistic

I hate to keep pressing the debate

But I am not just speaking of groups.

A guild of 50 people, try-harding.

if you had to invest in 10-15 tanks, in the guild, to level up fastest

but I guess it wouldn't matter because each group would be isolated.

don't worry about it. I don't want my ego to appear to keep arguing
