Do party members need to be in a certain range to benefit from party bonuses?

Or is it like as long as two people are in the same instance they both receive the bonus xp and quantity, no matter how far apart they are?

If there is a max range, does anybody know roughly how wide that range is?

it's a perfectly legit thing to wonder. I've often been curious, is it just when we are in the same area? It it when I can hear them? Is it when I can see them? Is the exp bonus close proximity but the iiq bonus effect just in same instance? I still don't even know these things and I've leveled 2 characters. Anyone who has the know how and hardware to multibox already knows these answers.

YES, ITS ROUGHLY 1-2 SCREENS, SO PRETTY CLOSE

Well I tried it with a few group members standing at the very beginning of normal terraces, and the +50% increased mob HP was definitely in effect in the entire zone. I tested it unarmed, and when I was solo, I one shot everything, but when I had 3 people in the instance with me, I 2 shot mostly everything with an occasional 1 or 3 shot. And the fire boss took 18 hits grouped vs 4 hits solo.

But I don't know how I could test the item quantity bonus out.

it might show up on player statistics maybe.

How about the exp?

I'm thinking of multi-boxing maps to bump up their exp/loot since partying doesnt appeal with the loot system (trust ppl in online game? roflkiddingme).

They just need to be on the same map to get the bonus item quantity. Not sure about the bonus experience though.

I wondering about the xp bonus if they are not 2 screens apart from you. Because when I party with people in some maps they will run off the road.
