This was really wierd but maybe someone else can shed some light on the situation.....


I was grinding FS xp like I have been for the last couple weeks.... And just recently... like the last bit cbt xp to FS xp conversion I did.... all of my xp since then has been cut in half!! Giant Baz Nitches only give me 2500 xp and usually give 5000 xplol....


I dunno if maybe once you hit a certain amount of FS xp now all of the normal xp after that gets cut in half??? Someone help me out lol

I have seen some Mobs that were giving 100-200 FS XP on Sunday night only giving 1 FS XP when killed last night. What gives.

I haven't trained up any new FS skills or dropped any elite professions. I am not even 1/4 of the way to being able to train my next FS skill.

Xp gained is determined (somewhat) by how "tough" you are relative to the mob. You don't get the same xp from a nuna as a Master Pistoleer as you did at Novice Marksman.


Your "level" is determined by the combat skill boxes you have and the power of your group members. You get more xp from a mob when you're solo than you do in a group. If you were getting Baz Nitch missions while grouped, were you staying in the group or leaving it after getting the mission? Were you using any pets (CL10, droid, or faction) and did you group with them?


Did you train a FS box after your last conversion? I suppose it's possible that could "push you over" some critical point regarding your "level" to drop the xp gain.

I haven't given up my master profession which is pistoleer. I have used it so far throughout my grind and haven't had a problem until now


I am 4434 in Cbt Prowess for FS ...... It happened after the last time a converted my cbt xp to FS which put me at about half way done the last Cbt Prowess box i need before master.


It was a solo group of people.... although people did leave the group.... I have never seen it take away xp like that..... and i even left the group and tried killing a few things and I wasstill onlygetting half of the xp that I usually get.


and no after my last conversion from cbt xp to FS xpI didn't train in any boxes...



I dunno.... I am gonna log on now and check it out again..... I sent a bug report.... maybe my answer will be there... I hope

Did a correspondent just say you get more xp solo than in a group?

I always grind in a group for the xp bonus....

Well 1) I'm not a combat correspondant, for stuff other than food I can easily be talking out of my butt. And 2) I should've said you can get less xp for a mob when in a group.


I usually go out solo, or with a pet. If I group with a mid-level pet (I've got some CH), I get less weapon/combat xp than if I'm ungrouped. It was my assumption that if a group's total power level got above a certain point, you'd get less xp in the same manner as when you (solo) gain more combat skills and go against the same mob.


This could be overcome by the increased level of mobs gained from missions when in a group, is that what you're talking about?

When grouped with a pet, your pet may be attacking the npc, causing you to do overall less damage than if you were attacking it solo.

No I mean in any type of group i get an xp bonus. Ungrouped I get 2800xp(or close to that) for a quenker kill, grouped I get 3200xp(or close).
