Why is there no bonus exp in parties?

this has probably been brought up before, but there is absolutely no incentive to play with other people and its upsetting, back in Diablo 2 that was one of the biggest hits for me is joining other player's games because of the exp bonus, all those boss clear runs and cow levels, someone want to tell me why ggg is against this?
Because it's not D3 dude

so this is the type of quality feedback the Poe community has been cut down to? yea, nvm
There certainly is an incentive to grouping. Groups allow for greater item quantity and combined rarity between players means a better chance of high end gear dropping.
There doesn't need to be bonus xp because you still get more actual xp per unit time for partying, due to faster clears. Partying is already heavily incentivised, believe it or not. It just might not be that obvious.
Have you done something awesome with [url=http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Sire_of_Shards]Sire of Shards[/url]? PM me and tell me all about it!
ya with 2 players you have double the damage but mobs only get 50% more life, so you clear faster.
I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)
Not to mention huge chance to dodge added to your character in group with following formula 1-x/x where x is number of player

Group is ez mode

solo they all pick on u. group they may go after player a b c or d
Git R Dun!

Grouping already has so many advantages over single player play.

More protection - mobs split focus
monsters only get slightly more life - 60% in merc per additional player
reduced map usage (6 players can run 6 maps with each using only 1 per person, solo=6)
Sharing of aura's
etc..


grouping is already EZ mode and now you want to dumb it down further to D3 level?
Seriously?

If anything, they should make grouping slightly harder. Groups can start and finish a map before I finish typing this response.
Whether parting is viable in a game is important for every rpg game. It has nothing to do with whether this is D3 or not, if we want to prevent the aging of this game GGG has to make partying a lot more viable. I agree with OP.
are u serious man? solo is totally underpowered, if anything they need to incentivise that. if ur in a groups race u want to at least have a partner, and on top of the reasons mentioned above, sharing masters is an excellent incentive. 6xzana daily missions a day is quite fun!
