Am I helping players or stealing their kills in the overworld?

Question

Lets say I join in on some random player fighting a rare elite, is the kill shared by amount of participation, or by first or last hit? Does hitting an enemy someone else started on mean they get less loot and XP?

And lastly is the xp shared by party members limited to zone, map or like 100 yards?

Depends on what you're doing.

If I see a legendary on the world map and someone is already fighting it, I won't even help because you'll get nothing but the experience.

I really hate they did it like this, because now folks are racing to elite mobs to get the first hits in. Sometimes a fight can be so chaotic that you won't know until the fight is finished who got the first hits in.

This statement is based on personal experience; every elite I've helped with gives me zero drops. Of course this could just be RNG because the drop rates are trash anyways unless you're paying.

Yeah, I invited a guy to a party that had started killing a rare mob and he immediately declined, so I just ran away

How about on world bosses? It looks like everyone gets drops, but I think i got a legendary from getting the last hit in. Not sure.

i know for a fact the last hit gets the kill ... i have been trying to kill hagan in the cemetary (5 kills for achievment) and ive had several players come along and steal the kill, i may have got xp and loot but i did not get the kill in my acheivments even though i did 3/4 of the damage, the kill should always be based on total damage delt not last hit.

and lets talk about loot goblins that gold is a free for all, once it drops any player can take it.

XP and drops in party are shared when the portrait of the group member is lit up. When out of range the portrait will gray out.

If out of party, the first person to hit a monster tags it. Contribution is then based on damage thresholds and determines whether or not the game will give you loot for the kill. This seems to either be bugged or intentionally doesn't work on certain monsters, quest purple elites seem to be an example of this.
