That is exactly what I'm complaining about. If a character really "must" play in large games to get experience, that is a glaringly obvious play imbalance. Whether or not this is the case currently, it hopefully will NOT be the case in the future. If there existed an armor that gave +200% experience, but gave no other mods, probably everyone would wear it, but that wouldn't somehow make the armor a good addition to the game, or remotely balanced.

And of course you don't have to play in large games. It's just that you need to kill 5 times as many monsters to get the same amount of exp if not playing in large games. But that's just me nit-picking. ;)

Quote:and like it or not the inability for people playing on thier own and unable to at least kill in 8 player hell games will infuriate alot of people.
If "players 1" was boosted to give exactly as good rewards as "players 8", who would complain that they couldn't solo "players 8"? The one and only reason that most people play "players 8" is because the rewards easily outweigh the disadvantages. This is a bad thing, and has hopefully been fixed. Actually, I find it kinda funny that many people in SP do "players 8" since, imo, "players 5" is much better for quick experience.

Quote:It appears the necro cannot even kill in a large realm game, being useless in a party, except being a "curse bitch" for others.
I'm confident that 8 necros could kill together quite easily. Just because each player on the team can't kill by himself, doesn't mean that will still be the case if partied. Multiply the damage by 8, and monster regen is no longer such a problem, for example.
