you see alot of peeps teaming up to quest and such since there isn't any xp penalty for doing so. It actually speeds things up alot
I noticed that as well. Another cool thing is that my healer doesn't have to be in a person's group to buff them (some MMOs require that) so I can doo drive-by buff/heal casts while running through an area.

Earlier today I was in an old-school xp party just grinding on elite mobs... was a lot of fun actually, 1 Tank ,1 Healer, 1 Buffer, 3x DPS... it reminded me a lot of FFXI, which is a good thing.
Look at the general channel for 30 seconds and you'll see tons of players looking for group and teaming for quests. A lot of shit can be done solo, but A LOT of quests are surrounded by tons of mobs, so you can easily get overwhelmed and die... and there is a death penalty in this game, and it can add up.

Theres not much going around in this game, the later game pvp stuff is all about grouping obviously

Also a nice touch, one of only a few for a game live elsewhere for so long I think, that you can click link a quest to chat to advertise for a group.
