Group Level Requirements

I know it is a newb question, and I did search for the info. Could someone explain how groups work as far as level. Again please forgive the newby question.

I noticed that when one person is very high level and the other is not by themselves the low level person was not getting xp.

But when in a larger group even if that high level person was in it the lower level person started getting xp.

So what is the level gap to allow you to xp as a lower level character with a higher level character and is it based on mobs. (i.e. does the mob have to be at least light blue to the higher level character)???

Please forgive my slowness but I am from Oklahoma you know :)
 
Own level x 2/3 (0.67) is the lowest possible level for a person to get xp with you.
Own level x 3/2 (1,5) is the highest level you can gain xp with.

A level 40 xp'ing with a level 60 isn't good xp for the level 40, anymore.
 
also for your info, the mobs you are killing need to be blue to the highest lvl to get exp, a high lvl cant just group with a 40 and mow down greens
 
The exp modifier for the entire group is based off the highest member in the group.

This is because it used to be possible to powerlevel characters from level 40 to 60 in a ridiculous amount of time.
 
Take the highest level person you are going to group with say for example lvl 60. Divide 60 by 3 and you get 20. so you take the lvl 60 and subtract 20 from it to get the lowest level that can group with the 60 and get xp.

Highest level/3=X. Highest level-X=lowest level that can be grouped and still get xp.

I have used this guideline since i started playing in march of 2000 and has never failed me. Hope this helps others as it has helped me.
 
Just want to point out something real quick:

Code:
x=highestlevel/3

lowestlevel = highestlevel - x
Substituting x, we get:

Code:
lowestlevel = highestlevel - highestlevel/3
Factoring the right side, we get:

Code:
lowestlevel = highestlevel * ( 1 - 1/3 )
Reducing this further, you finally get:

Code:
lowestlevel = highestlevel * 2/3


Which is what Homogenn said, btw. Not trying to blast you Gwendelyn, quite the contrary. I commend you for coming up with another way of calculating this which seems so different, but is actually exactly the same. :) Just everyone remember the 2/3 and 3/2 factors and we'll all be in good shape.


Mathematically yours,

Wany :lol:
