15-20 players do their best, the mellees fight in front, the Archers Shot. Healers heal. Tanks fight.
Solo Sorceror and Bright Wizard TAB-DoT Everything = Easy Mode
They stand there and all they do is to press 1-2 Keys while the rest has hard work.
THE RESULT IS >>
for a Won scenario
Group Tanks,Healer, Archer, Hybrids = 12000-14000xp
SOLOing Sorceror/Bright Wizard =25000-35000xp
for the same 15 minutes.
All they do is standing there TABing through the enemies, and for that they get twice the xp of all others.
Renown usually is 300-600 for a Tor Anroc.
Sorceror/BrightWizard gets >> 3500 Renown for the same 15 minutes.
I always take screenshots of the most unfair Endresults.
If i could post them here i would to show you all how unfair the reward system is.
Something must be done against the Soloers in scenarios. They stand in the middle of all others and just DoT every enemy getting most xp on the cost of the others.
Could this Sorceror/BW get all this xp without the other players ?? NO....
Edit 6th. Dez 2008 > i am out, i have enough of this game...

Before you start making reasons for BW's or Sorc's going into a solo group.... try playing one. If you think playing either class is just pressing one or two buttons and letting the rest of the group do the work, you're sadly mistaken and have probably been owned by one of the classes too many times.
BW's Sorc's or any other class do not always go into a solo group for the increased XP... it has to do with the HP recovery. Both BW's and Sorcs suffer a LOT of damage from kickbacks as a result of casting spells.. which means their health is often at a very low point. If you are in a group without a healer, your heal regen is MUCH MUCH slower than if you were in a group by yourself.
I for one will go into a solo group by myself if there is no healer. That way I can regen my health much faster instead of wasting time running back from the spawn point constantly.
Your complaint about the xp might have worked before the recent patch.. but not now. BW's and Sorcs certainly aren't outdamaging scenarios as they have in the past... at least not to the degree they had been.

in the last weeks i watched so many coward TAB-DoT Solo BWs and Sorc, my Ignore lists are full of them.
I have a L28 BW and a Level 19 Sorc. i know how easy it is to get xp. WE7WH will go for you but if your smart you can leech 50-100% more than all others have.
whom you telling man ? whom....
I actually saw a sorc in late t2 and early on in t3 doing this and getting over 40-50k xp everytime
Kudos on doing exactly what parents, media and authority figures do wrong when trying to stop kids from doing something they see as bad... the WRONG way.
They say "This thing is bad.. just look at this news story coming up, Film at 11". Or "The latest music kids are listening to with demonic overtones", then they print a list of CDs. They go and explain EXACTLY how things are done, or what something is while "alerting" other parents. Then guess what all the kids do? You guessed it.. those that did it were never going to stop anyways and those that didn't know about it or HOW to do it, now they know.
Nice job.. By posting exactly how this is done in your rant, you probably just added 15-20% MORE exp DOT leechers in the coming weeks for your future battles.
Congratulations!
"TO MICHAEL!"
do you think people are sp stupid that they wont find that out ??
come on..
It has nothing to do with people being 'stupid'. They may not have paid attention to total overall damage stats like someone such as you have before. They probably were just playing it for fun and burning down one guy at a time.
But really, even if you just now told ONE more person how to do this, you increased odds that this info will grow. Don't you think?
"TO MICHAEL!"
is your hp recovery really slower in a group?
Mythic should balance experience system in scenerios.
Just like they are hard at work enticing players to play as Order?
