I've heard xp "Is not split" in D3 parties, but to whom is it given?

If there are a dozen monsters on the screen worth 100xp each, and my partner kills them all with some nuke (while I idly watch) do we each get 1200xp?

If so, and he kills the same batch of monsters while I am very far away, do I still get the xp?

XP is duplicated for each party members within "a screen and a half"1 of the kill, as if each member got the kill themselves. (Though all party members will get quest-end XP regardless of location.)

This is a departure from Diablo 2, where XP was literally divided among party members.

In your example, yes, you each would get 1200 XP, but not if you're far away ("screen and a half").

  • So you are saying the xp is individual for each party member with a max range of a screen and a half, am I right following this logic?

  • Yep, identical as long as you're within range of the kill

    Is the size of the "screen and a half" based on something in-game or dependent on the player's resolution?

  • In-game, but that rough estimate came from Bashiok, a Blizzard CM. If you want him to clarify, you can ask him directly

  • Note that any +exp-per-kill bonuses are not duplicated. My friend and I played hardcore, me at level 10 and him at 1. To catch up, he added a bunch of +exp bonuses, while I had none. Though we always stuck together and never died, by the time I was level 20 he was ahead of me.

As long as you are in the same area as the kill occurs, you will each get the full experience for the kill. I believe the no splitting refers to the fact that it it isn't divided by the number of players.
