Parties

The maximum party size is 6 players.

Effect on monsters
Monsters gain 50% extra life for each additional party member after the first. For example, against a party of 3 players, monsters have double life.
It is unknown what other buffs (if any) are applied.

Effect on loot
Each player in a party after the first gives the equivalent of +50% item quantity modifier on drops. So a party of three will see twice as many drops as a lone character.
Increased Item Rarity & Quantity modifiers are only counted from the player who lands the killing blow.

Effect on experience
Players in a party gain less experience for each monster kill than if they were alone. For the full experience formula, see the level scaling section above. Only party members actually in the instance count toward getting XP. If one member is in town he gets no XP.

Monsters give +75% base XP for every party member after the first.

Effect on flasks
Only the character landing the killing blow on an enemy will gain flask charges. The same is true for all +life and +mana gained "when you deal a killing blow" modifiers.

Flasks have a +75% charge recovery bonus for each party member after the first.

Does each player gets 475 xp or each player gets just 79,1 xp?


What happens if 5 players have reached max level and max xp, does the 6th player then gets 475 xp?

If the 6 players in a party scather up, each going to a different area of the map (northeast, northwest, west, east, southeast and southwest), and each one of them is capable of soloing the 350% hp monsters by themselfs. Assuming they can get the loot for their area for themselfs, then they will end up seing 350% more quantity loot that they dont have to divide.
But if the 6 players remain on the same area, then they will end up getting just 58% of the loot they would originally get soloing, and around 1/7 of the loot they would get if they did split up. Interesting.

How does the individual bonuses to quantity/quality a player has works with the bonus they get from the party?

Do the bonuses of the party get applied on top of the individual player bonuses as multipliers? Or it just adds on top of them?

If a player has 100% quantity and is in a party of 6, does it means now the monsters drop 450% extra loot if that player does the killing blow?

x2 (+100%) + x4.5(+350%)
or
x2 x x4.5 ?

There are two modifiers that affect drop rates in the game, increased item rarity, and increased item quantity.

Increased Item Rarity
Increased Item Rarity % modifiers stack additively, and increase the chances of an item being magic, rare, or unique. For example with a total of +100% increased item rarity, For example, if you had +100% item rarity, you'd get twice as many magic items, twice as many rares and twice as many uniques from normal enemies.
This modifier has no effect on the number or type of currency items, scrolls, or gems that drop.
When in a party, only the modifier from the player who lands the killing blow on an enemy is counted.
If one of your minions gets a kill, the minion's IIR is added to yours and the total is used.

Magic, rare, and unique monsters have an Increased item rarity modifier for drops. This modifier stacks additively with any modifiers on your character.

Increased Item Quantity
This modifier increases the average number of items that drop from monsters and chests. It does not affect the type, quality, or rarity of item dropped, only the chance that something will drop. There is no cap on the usefulness of this modifier, as monsters can drop more than one item at a time.
The base chance for an item to drop from a normal monster is 16%. This varies between monster types, and special monsters have higher drop chances.

I asked about "additivelly or multiplicativelly" because when Malice post says "Increased Item Rarity & Quantity modifiers are only counted from the player who lands the killing blow." it seemed redundant on the context of "party bonus".

If all are getting the party bonus, doesnt matter who lands the killing blow, for the party bonus.

Since the subject is under party mechanics, no point talking about individual "rarity/quantity bonus". Unless it was to mention that the party bonus potentializes the individual bonus of the char who did the killing blow.

So, in other words, for the purpose of getting the 350% party bonus, doesnt matter who deals the killing blow.

Killing blow is just for the purpose of defining wich individual bonus will be used in case multiple characters have bonuses. So different individual bonuses dont stack, but individual+party bonus for who dealt the killing blow does stack.
