Grouped running.
#21435 - 05/23/07 07:32 AM

what happens when you run with someone lower concerning drops.

does the higher level not get asgood drops as he/she would solo and the lower get really good drops compared to what they would normal or what??

because mainly with friends i dont tend to get asmuch good loot as alone

The monsters are the level of the leader, and everybody gets drop their own level.

At least that's how i've seen it till now

Ok, i am more awake now... exactly... the monster is the level of the leader, but because of that, the drops will not go far above the level of the monsters. So a level 100 playing with a a level 50 will not get drops with a level over 54 maybe, and he will receive fewer drops also.

And of course, nothing scales higher or lower than the level range of the dungeon, so a lvl 100 leading a group in Widower's will scale the dungeon to the max of lvl 45, and no one will get loot much better than that.

I've also noticed that if the leader is several levels below your level (meaning the monsters are also) you won't get any experience for killing them. I'm not sure where the cutoff is for this.

The cutt-off is 5 levels above the leader. Any more than that and you wont get xp.
