Currently in Diablo 2 you get a fraction of the xp you are supposed to get when partied with 8 people in the throne of destruction forcing someone to unparty or leave the throne for the other 7 to get full xp.
I haven’t played D2 for a long time, so correct me if im wrong, but isn’t that only an issue when lower level people are partied with much higher level peeps?
This is a bug that only happens on wave 2 of baals minions in the throne of destruction as I described it above
Here is an online resource regarding this bug. I did not check its validity.
The Basin wiki page mentions the bug:
When ( (party members - 1) * experience) * 87 equals 2,147,483,648 or greater, there is an overflow which can result in a negative value

fix this and ama face t4t
According to the devs, they want to fix unintended bugs in calculations, which cause negative side effects for players. The prime example were invisible projectiles and poison clouds, but I guess, this falls unser the same category.
So how do we get them to read this
I think, we already did.
That’s what this board is for.
Any word on if this has been looked at?
They’ll probably let us know of all fixes before launch.
Nope. And, from the looks of the frequency of blue posts on the forum, we’re not going to know on this specific thread.
I had this thought as well, but credit where credit is due.
There are so many nasty bugs in this game. I hope they fix a lot of them. I’d consider this one minor but still needing a fix.
Losing 1 out of 5 waves of xp during Baal runs is a little more than minor.
