Bosses have double the HP and do not have double the XP to Lts.
Therefore in an XP/min scenario, bosses suck. They also do more damage and resist more damage and debuffs. This makes it so that they take longer to kill. Yes one boss gives more XP than one Lt, but you can kill 3 Lts, and a bunch of minnions in the time it takes to kill a boss.
I find +2/ is a good balance between ease and speed. Its difficult enough not to fall asleep at the keyboard, but not hard enough to needing to get Life insurance.
Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.
Hmm, OK I will try +2/+8 with no bosses and see how that works thanks! Yes, bosses definitely make things much tougher lol. I will just stop fighting them for now then! I am flying through +1/+8 with no bosses.

I am wondering which would be more XP between +0/+8 with bosses or +1/+8 without bosses?
I am L37 Thugs/Dark and I tried +1/+8 with bosses and they were a lot more trouble then I thought they would be, which obviously slows down the killing. The +0/+8 with bosses is rather simple, so it was strange it was such a change just going up a level.
