Another thing about soloing tho, is it takes more time. Yeah woo hoo you
got a lil sliver of exp, but now how long do you have to med? For me when i
was solo, i'd have to med for about 10 min after taking something down. NOT
a preferable way to play for me :) With groups, the tanks can bash the
thing in while you conserve mana or only have to med up 1 or 2 bars, and
even tho the exp is divided, you gain more exp IMHO.
