Where is the game design if getting xp and bonus for being afk in a group gets rewarded? It rewards power leveling services for sure.

We have proper group bonus in the game already which adds quite some bonus for each additional attacker (depends on group size!). You face more mobs, you get more bonus. That bonus is not even small, its +20% for each mob which easily sums up to +80% XP bonus. Just use what exists in the game already. Everything else you ask for is free lunch again. What you refer to on the other server was a bug due to a misunderstanding of how group bonus in DAoC works.


power leveling should be like it was on uth 1 or forbidden. it affects the gamebalance and makes the game boring because every1 want a pl grp or nothing. they even sell it for real $ on some sites (and accounts).

You can't remove powerleveling because it affects balance. How else is Albion supposed to level up their gimp autotrain classes?

What makes you assume that people are AFK in groups? It's not a free lunch, it's making classes viable that would otherwise need to be PLd to get anywhere. Probably AFK PL may I add.

Edit - maybe I'm having a bad maths day, but if each mob gives +20% xp from bonus. Isn't that just the same as +20% overall? And not 80%? Assuming you are talking about pulling 4 mobs that is.
My mind’s made up, don’t confuse me with facts.

Nope. When BAF is triggered and decides to send you 4 instead of 1 mob this will result in 4x20%=80% XP bonus for each of these 4 mobs. It changes the bonus for all mobs that come with one pull.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.

I know its been awhile but why not just level normally? I know im on Mid but we group SBs all the time and arent all the rogue classes pratically the same? Alb isnt as bad off as Hib when it comes to population so why not just level like you are supposed to?

Because many of the "core" group ablilities are very spread out, unlike Mid. As a result, most Alb groups have about 1 slot that can accommodate a rogue class, but if one of the other seven leave it can really shut down a group.

As a result, making groups in Alb is hard enough without even starting with a rogue. But a very self sufficient Necro can easily handle a rogue.

Thus it isn't about population, it is about how the group abilities are spread out more.

If there was no auto training required i think we would see more levelling groups on Alb.

Necromancer are just too good in pve . This has nothing to do with at. PL with bomb necromancer is just very good XP so whoever can will only join these grps.

I agree with you , but charging plats for levels is something that most people cant afford, so they make a Necro , then they struggle to level up at lyon due to pay to level Necros and friends who will take any spot they want , when they want.
