Question about groups

[RSB]

Wish I tested this out before the changes but does anyone know if you have 2 people in a group that can't both get xp I know the higher level character gets xp but does the lower level character still get allocated a piece of the xp?

Say I have a level 55 caster and a level 20 bard If they are grouped the normal formula would be

(55 + 5) / (55 + 5 + 20 + 5) for the percentage. So even thought the bard can't get xp he'd still take almost 1/3 of the xp.

Can anyone confirm or refute this?

Also if the 2nd party member is out of range then the message is something like (you gain xp and not group xp) so that means no split is taking place regardless correct?

Along those lines:

If you've got a level 55 character who is soloing, you get just base EXP.

If you group with another level 55 character, you get a bonus for having a second person, but split the exp.

What if you group with a level one character?

Even assuming they do take a percentage of the exp, it should be tiny, and may be less than the group bonus.

This is more an academic curiousity than anything, but it did get me wondering...

group bonus for 2 people is like 2%

level 60 and level 1 within range (if the level 1 grabs xp) would be like this

(1+5)/(60 + 5 + 1 + 5)
or 6 / 71 which is about 8.5%

I imagine that they do take xp just wondering if someone could confirm it.
