Now I love ya Kronos, which is why we’re going to do this in the first place, and I’ll just get right in to it... The group XP buff implemented on K3 was a failure. It completely changes the leveling climate of the server, it appropriates an absurd speed in which dedicated players can hit 60 long before anyone doing it “the legit” way that you would normally do it in vanilla. It creates a highly unusual group forming economy as many players are simply just looking for AOE groups, and places mages at a value far beyond others. I don’t think we need vanilla footage proof to show that this wasn’t a thing in vanilla, and there’s probably a good number of reasons why it wasn’t, if K3’s results are anything to go by. It can probably still be smoothed out...just revert the buff...yes the people who used it will keep the advantage they earned by being opportunists, but it’s just leveling. Soon we will all be 60 and it’s irrelevant, so just removing the buff would future-proof the server from feeling as awkward as it kind of does right now with the glaring issue of AOE groups being optimal for leveling.
