How are experience points divided between players in Borderlands? - Group of People in White Shirts

We're playing Borderlands among a small group of friends and I've noticed we tend to level up in a ever-so-slightly staggered fashion. It's no single character or player, I think so far everyone in our party has been the first to reach a given level one big fight before the rest.

The characters aren't being played outside our multiplayer party, which means experience gain must be somehow uneven between characters. How are experience points from killing monsters divided between players? Is there a last-hit or assist bonus or something like that?



Best Answer

If there is a level difference among players, the EXP will be distributed accordingly so the lowest level character gets the highest and the higher level character gets the lowest. It does not matter who gives the killing blow.

That being said what you may be seeing is some of the people in your party may be completing challenges and gaining bonus EXP since it's a personal EXP reward, and is not distributes among the party.
