I think it got worse.
Before the patch I got like..300 exp from mobs about 9-10 lvls above me.
But I could fight a few before I had to rest, I often didn't even have to rest at all.

Now I die when I try to fight mobs 10-15 lvls BELOW me.
And if I manage to kill one, I get 30-40 exp.
Something is wrong with this..?!

Maybe all those players with all their classes at rank 50 didn't notice, but I don't even have half of the HP left I had before the patch.
And as an AoE tank my main attribute is INT?
I'm not even wondering anymore why I die after the second hit of a monster 12 lvl below me.
With this, the reason is obvious.

Don't get me wrong, I love the patch, there's a lot of fun and interesting stuff to do.
But really, I'd still like to be able to lvl up, and that became pretty much impossible.
