Gaining very little xp vs. same CL mobs, do the pets we call lower the overall xp gain. Or is double xp borked again?

It seems the creature gives a certain overall xp and you get some of it depending how much combat and damage you did, and the pet gets a portion of that xp too. Don't know if that is the way it is meant to work or a bug.

If the pet(s) outdamage you then you will not get as much XP, assuming you are using a weapon (i.e. a Rifle)
I always make sure I outdamage my pet(s) with my rifle and I am gettting double Rifle XP, Double Combat XP, and a decent amount of CH XP (not sure if it is exactly double or not but I am satisfied with it). I know I am getting far more CH XP than I was before.

Depending upon the pet strength versus mob/critter determines the amount of CH xp you will get. You will get FAR less xp for your own combat skill when using a pet.

My testing didn't bear this out. CH xp seems tied to my own combat level and not those of the pets.

Last night on Ahazi, I was running huurton missions for XP and wooly hide with a level 80 friend (I'm level 60). The combat spam was borked with default strings and other nonsense that made it very difficult to tell what XP was being gained for what reason.
I do know that my GSH and Mantigrue Screecher performed superbly as pullers to get the huurtons away froom the lair and each other, so for the most part we could deal with them one at a time.

I've been running Aakuan missions with guildmates, and I pull them one at a time with my pets. They're level 80-82 and i used pets ranging from 38-63 and got the same xp for each one. When I just let the pets hit, I got average of 13k CH xp, and banked 800k of it in3 hours. If I hit the Aakuan, however, then I took some of the xp for myself. So while everyone in the group will get max xp, those with pets will share their xp if they use em.
