I don't quite understand the need to go mobs that con red to the whole group. This is especially true if your group is using melee DDs. The other day I was in a group fighting Cycs and sure they were some pretty good xp 110-195k per kill. But all that time I was just doing my min damage, but the other DD was an Enchanter so it wasn't too slow or too fast. In the 30 mins we were there I got about 1.5p. Not bad for a half-hour. Then I log on before work today and decide to spend the 30 mins I have farming the DM bandits. At 37 they are about half green and the other half lt. blue. In that 30 minute span I made over 10k in junk loots/stack with a fair amount of gems and 1 decent rare. Also the little dinks of xp I got 22-30k a kill, I realized I had made a full pink in xp.
Is there a point to this post... probably not. As always I go where ever the group wants to go. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this kinda experience. Killing mobs for 'crappy' xp leading to faster progress than killing mobs for 'uber' xp.
Now just where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
And if you are the Singforu that I have seen on PPO, Imma gonna catch you.

Posted: Jan 08 2004 at 11:34 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Oh yeah... the main point of the thread....
I try to make this point all the time, but people just don't seem to want to hear it.
10 white cons killed in the same amount of time as
5 white cons for 3/4 the xp = more total xp
Also there is a lot less damage taken by the tank!!!
Last night I was with a good group xp'ing at the clopses, we were there for I don't know, maybe and hour. Good xp, no deaths, but my armor was trashed. I believe I got every single stack most of the other loot too (I asked if everyone was ok on repairs, one was a wizzy, ench, and healer, I think, so they said o.k.), I think 2 gems, and I was still way short on repairs. I think it was 8k short.
My point is I think if you kill say dk blue to whites, maybe even a few lt blues or yellows, one way or the other. I believe it is
1. faster xp in the long run.
2. less expensive repairs for the tank (and I would assume even for others using weapons)
3. Much safer in regards to adds or possible trains from someone trying to take your spot.
