Did you use your mind bleeds until it was almost dead? If so, that's why. You only get exp for the amount of non-bleed damage you do.

Negative. You get full XP for killing something even with mind bleeds, as long as you do SOME non-bleed damage to it.

are you saying you got 1 xp point for the mauler? not 1k?


is your weapon degraded to 0 condition? ( though i don't know how you'd kill anything with it).


i've also seen this happen when you use a weapon that has no armor piercing bonus (same ap as mob's av)against a creature that has 100% resists to that damage type. but, that's extremely unlikely for a mauler.

Once you gain enough skill with a weapon, the same mobs will give you less XP, down to 1XP. Not sure if that's what's happening to you...but it does happen.

Make sure you haven't hit your Rifle XP cap.
