No bonus for Dance or EH XP still though. I wonder if that's a bug or intended?
Gah, that sucks! Man, if we hear the same old stupid excuses for this that they gave us for not being able to buff ourselves in the past....(grumble)....

No It was more like "You can't self-buff because buffing yourself would give you EH XP, and that could be exploited"
But what they can say is: Since you automatically self buff now, means you're always buffed when dancing (which is right - you start dancing, and after the first tick you would be buffed), so we calculated the Dancing and EH XP already with that bonus included (which I don't believe really, but no way to prove them wrong or right here).

Yeah, the thing about not being able to mind buff ourselves that was so frustrating was that we were providing a service to others we couldn't provide ourselves. So, when we buffed others for combat, Medic leveling, or ID leveling, we couldn't also do this for ourselves - we had to go find someone else with our very same skill set.
This XP buff isn't really the same deal. While we can't use it to increase our own Music/Dance/EH XP, neither can the other people we buff.
So that right there makes it much less frustrating.
Like Coreena said, we would be pretty much always getting an EH XP bonus if this worked for EH XP. For Dance/Music XP gain outside of EH zones (starports, where ever), it would be nice to see an XP bonus. Maybe there could be a Dance/Music XP gain bonus put directly on Cantinas.

Haha!
No, they never offered an explanation. Maybe more people should be asking nicely for the purpose of this change in the focus threads.
