Minimum levels, to still get XP in a group

In some ~6 years old post I've read, there is formula: "1.5*lower level (rounded down)"

Is this still true? If yes, then this bellow should be correct, right?

10 -> 15
11 -> 16
12 -> 18
13 -> 19
14 -> 21
15 -> 22
16 -> 24
17 -> 25
18 -> 27
19 -> 28
20 -> 30
21 -> 31
22 -> 33
23 -> 34
24 -> 36
25 -> 37
26 -> 39
27 -> 40
28 -> 42
29 -> 43
30 -> 45
31 -> 46
32 -> 48
33 -> 49
34 -> 51
35 -> 52
36 -> 54
37 -> 55
38 -> 57
39 -> 58
40 -> 60

 

Just be aware that the experience rate for the level 40 killing with level 60s, even in a high level zone, is basically the same as grouping with level 40s with level appropriate mobs. You used to be able to group and get good exp even with a big level differential, but that was changed awhile back.

 

Can we sticky this?

 

Same formula, but round up.

 

Why sticky when you can wiki? will add it in somewhere tomorrow unless someone beats me to it.

 

Do both. Information like this deserves to be front and center.

 

Thank you very much!
So it is rounded up

 

Good to know!
The reason I asked is since I have 10 characters with levels from 10 to 24 and I wanted to know how I can mix them up

 

Now I have a question

Say I have trio with these levels: 26/26/18
For the sake of this example, all three just dinged their levels, so their XP bars are empty.

If these three group together, will character lvl19 fill XP bar faster? (I'm guessing even if all three get same fixed XP points per kill, lower level need less points for advancing...)

Or, it is adjusted, so they will all three level with similar pace? (in this example, no character has XP penalty such as Ixar)

 

That was how it used to work I believe, and why you could quickly level a level 40 with 2 60s, but its now split up so that the higher levels take a much bigger slice of the pie. And I think even more if the mob is green to them, even if they don't actually get the exp.

 

Someone may have put this in recently, but I just changed the formula from down, to round up. No need to expand the page with all the numbers when the formula is simple.

Level of the lowest member of the group x 1.5 = Maximum level (round up) that can be grouped while still receiving XP

Thank you to whomever added that, just a minor correction.

 

Well in this case I know how I will speed up leveling my around 55 with level 40's on green mobs

Seriously though, thanks for the info. In this case I will make sure, there is no big gap level between my characters when I will be experimenting different combination.

 

I believe the 18 will level slightly faster than the other two, and eventually lessen the gap over the course of 10 levels or so. I could be wrong, I haven't played much on here the last year.

 

I may just try it and see

 

I always used (Lvl*1.5)+1... Then round down. 10 can group with 16.

Rule doesn't work til lvl 8 (1-9 you can just add 5 lvls)

But here is the actual rule:
There is a minimum of 5 levels difference, and a maximum of 30 levels difference. In between those ranges, the formula of highest = 1.5 * lowest + 1 (drop fractions or round down).
