* EDIT * I will say that when I solo hardmode, I do alright for stuff like hm, but that is because it is usually one or two other players with me, and all the loot is going to such a small group.
I know the pinata feeling. Same for me on hard mode soloing. I can get some decent mats. Interesting, with some players (with 2 people kiting together, with one specific person, the mats gets pretty evenly split, with another person I get most/all the mats, and with another I did it with, I got almost no mats. And it was consistent round to round.

Otherwise, servers wouldn't crash with use of cades/barrels and people wouldn't get in situations where they go no XP at all.
Now, I do leave space for it to just be a birthday distribution paradox-type situation, but since it seems to be consistent over rounds/servers/days, that to me, points more to bug. It's easy to have something that seems conceptually correct but still be computationally incorrect, especially with "random" things on computers.
Now, another dev questions -- for shared gold, I noticed that the gold portion seems to be lower as there are more players yet the assist XP stays the same (as in assist gold gets spread around). Is that accurate?
