Sarpedonia
PlacioI don’t recall one master causing everyone to lose xp, did you have multiple masters join your team?
If I have a master healer in a group and they heal yes, no one gets xp. Also if a master melee or ele is doing damage, healers don't get xp.
Doesn't apply on mobs with high xp multiplier level, so on ploderos your team will still gain xp
To this idea we can add 2 more ways to do it in my opinion,
one is to cap the master to the level of the target dynamically, so they can play together have fun and work it out.
(This system could also be used in Duel (for fairness) )
**EDIT: As suggested in your part II post**
Or second is to still give the xp to a master, and to finally do something with it:
a) you can share to the player that is doing an action with you
b) you can keep the little amount per mob and buy thing with it,
copying the death penalty system but with real content
We could see once again masters doing leveling and hunt.
