less xp than what? than they'd get as a tier 2 pilot? i think not. perhaps they'd get less xp as a tier 4 pilot if their alternative grind spot was kessel, but i'd like to think a master pilot could be more efficient then someone at tier 4.

MP ships suck? my aggressor is a machine. no tier 1, 2 or 3 pilot is going to get better xp than i can give them sitting afk while i romp through DS. a krayt? holy cow that thing is a tank in DS, i doubt you could even come close as a tier 4 pilot in kessel.
recently i went up with a tier 4 pilot to test. 100k xp every 10 minutes in deep space for the turret gunner... fighting side by side in kessel gave markedly less, somewhere around 50k xp every 10 minutes, although a part of that had to to with waiting on spawns or flying around finding enemies.
edit: keep in mind my aggressor only has 1 lvl 7 RE'd gun in it. a krayt would likely fit 3 lvl 10 guns in it easily, easily tripling the damage you dish out, i think 300k every 10 minutes is a pretty fair estimate. so i think it'd be more efficient in the krayt no matter what, and maybe is about the same flying side by side if you are in an agressor.

One night my guild did a corvette run, with 6 players in 4 ships. 2 aces were flying Ywings with gunners and they were responsible for taking out half the fighter escort, both gunboats, and the corvette. MP ships suck when you try to use them like an interceptor. When you use them as they're meant to be used (making gunboats and cap ships look stupid) they are brilliant.
