In order for a Thaumaturge to cast [[Thaumaturge_Gregory#Spells|healing spells]] on their allies, they '''MUST''' occupy the same party as any players they wish to heal. Regeneration and Flash Heal will fail to cast entirely, and Ring of Mercy will not apply healing when targeting players outside of your party. This makes forming a party an absolute requirement when clearing dungeons. | |||

When partied all party members share '''ALL''' EXP gained by any member in the party. The EXP gain is for all professions EXP and class EXP. Each action that would grant EXP gives that EXP to all players in the party. This EXP benefits from gear bonuses and increased party EXP '''but''' is individually calculated for each player. The gained EXP is calculated with the following equation:<br><br><code>(Base EXP + Gear Bonus + Party Bonus)/Number of Players in Party</code><br><br>Some sources of experience are '''not''' split between party members. These include: Class XP from [[Plunder Chest|Plunder Chests]], Profession and Class XP granted by books or quests, and Profession XP from crafting ([[Alchemy]], [[Cooking]], [[Runecarving]]). The relevant XP bonus provided by the party still applies to all of these sources. | When partied all party members share '''ALL''' EXP gained by any member in the party.
