What do you think about the totem/party nerf?

  1. Revert it and bring back group grinding!

    In my opinion, it engages the player more. It's not that the killer gets all the XP, but anyone who did damage gets it. This eliminates AFK-grinding, and forces you to be engaged.

    On the other side, however, I have no idea if it in practice will force everyone out on their own, instead of being together. I mean, the XP-sharing is there; it's just that you now need to be engaged, together.

    You do get xp even without damaging the mob. It only stops if you don't kill at least 1 mob within a certain amount of time.

    Is the time 8 seconds? Because that's way too short. If you can't do enough damage (say it taking two Uppercuts to kill an enemy), then you'll be missing out as people kill the demons and you're left in the dust, with the occasional demon or two.
    If the time was 1 minute, that would be way more fair. It would still eliminate AFK grinding because I'm pretty sure no one is lazy enough to have a timer set off every minute for them to kill an enemy. This nerf was too drastic because people are thinking 'oh, XP parties are dead now'. And now there's no XP parties. As people have said, we're back to the selfish ways where we hog grinding spots and tell people to f*** off because we're in the path to their victory.
    The ironic thing is, isn't the whole story of Wynncraft about greed and selfishness?
    And if people think I'm just throwing a tantrum because my road to 100 or 101 was ruined, I'm not. I've already gotten to 100 and have no intention to get to 101.

    In which case, I am now in support of this totem update :O
    I mean, people were getting 100/101 left and right without doing anything.. Something had to be done.

    i liked the grinding parties,they made grinding fun,but now it is really hard to grind because "u need to hit the mobs 1 time for get xp from them" making the xp sharing pretty much useless
    so i dont like it
    i also dont like that people who has bad dmg cant get a kill because it is like:
    Archers and Mages: *spams arrow bombs and meteors and gets most kills*
    Warriors: *no good weapon = take your time for get a single kill before getting killstealed*
    Assassins: *you better get your own mob trapped or you are doing nothing in the party*
