So 4 of us are playing and levelling together as done in past games. This game seems to promote it with the social system etc and so far all is well.. apart from one thing, money.

2 of us played alts waiting for the other 2 to get EA and one was in early beta, by this point in the game we have loads more cash (not talking about a few credits, talking a few k). It's to the point we are struggling to justify sending companions out on crafting missions.

Anyone else found they make a huge amount more solo than grouped (yes I know general loot split) but just seems like a big difference to us.

..Grouping only affects experience points in Heroic quests. (4/4 players = 3x XP reward)

How is this possible? The mobs drop the same loot and the cash is split evenly works out exactly the same.

Are you forgetting that when 2 in a group you have to kill twice as many to recieve the same cash overall?
