My theory (holding off personal judgement till tomorrow when I can try things myself) is that they more or less buffed mobs by ~10 levels. Sounds crazy but according to the patch notes, killing a mob equal or higher level gives you a chain. Going by SE's past (with FFXI) exp chain systems, I think it's safe to assume that they want us killing mobs 2-3 levels lower than our own level if we're solo. People just aren't adapting to that new idea. Or at least that's what I think is happening.

But it is entirely possible SE made some huge oversight, wouldn't be the first time.
