A friend of mine regrinded investigation just before publish 20 and got arround 800 investigation xp per pop once he reached invest 3. I'm doing the same atm as I finished invest 3 and work my way towards invest 4 and only get arround 500 xp - same amountI got with level 2...
Was this an intentional change to make investigationeven harder to grind? What's going on?!Wasn't it long and boring enough before?!

He might also be a higher level than you too though, I ground out Investigation before CU though so I'm not really sure how that changed.

I'm exactly the same level as he was. Actually as I suspect is that they not only moved player bounties to master level but also the more advanced NPC bounties... which truly sucks if you are grinding investigation xp

Publish 20 changed the bounty mission difficulty level. The last point had previously been gained in inv 3, now it's gained at mbh. This might account for any changes in exp you're seeing.

Not sure what it's like now, but back when I did BH you got XP like this (roughly of course) -
Novice- 150 xp per mission (in a 3-hour buff session I'd get around 1.5 to 2.5k xp)
Inv 1 and 2 - 300 per mission
Inv 3 and 4 - 450 per mission
Granted, this was back when about 2/3rds of the missions were bugged and Jedi appeared on the terms but you couldn't track them (unless they happened to be sitting at 0,0 on a planet, lol).

Most of us have already done investigation. I'll see what's up when I start a new BH toon on Bloodfin.

Nope. Maybe you should do what a certain profession that I try not to acknbowlege did. Latest publish notes showed xp being divided equally among all group members. Meaning their precious grind got longer.....
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Problem solved. New patch notes have been changed and they got what they wanted.But your in the wrong profession so it probably wouldn't work.

I haven't paid attention to invest xp in a loooooong time.
It used to be (Payout / 30). So on a 30k NPC bounty you should be getting in the neighborhood of 1000 xp.
If it's less, then they stealth-nerfed it.

You have to work your way up with the 24K missions now which give arround 30% less xp then the 30K missions.

Around the 450XP per mark now working on INV4. Its boring. But I must continue, I have gone so far already.
