Has anybody noticed a severe reduction in knock off protection with this speeder since the last patch? I didn't find any patch notes about it, but it seems to be affected. I have had this speeder for quite some time and the protection was always great, only getting knocked by golds and some silvers such as missile droids. However, even the lowliest standard and weak targets are knocking me off the speeder in a couple of shots. I wasn't going to make a post about it, but a guildie and two friends who have it mentioned they felt it was reduced as well.

Almost spot on - xp from kills is reduced drastically. On the extreme end, a lowbies might get 1-10% of original kill xp. Quest xp remains the same however. There are other mmo's out there which have a mentoring program whereas the high level mentors the lower level. The details depend on how it is set up, but the gist is that the high level reduces their level to that of the lowbie so as not to affect their xp gains while also helping them. The extent of my helping lowbies usually involves doing a quick lowbie FP run, Heroic 4 group missions or just blitzing them through their class quests. I've got a RL friend at level 22 and he's completed Act 2 of his class story. His companion can pretty much solo any at level heroic 2 quest he picks up.

I reported this issue back in beta over 1.5 years ago. I even went so far as to track each and every mod and their stats so that the duplicates would be pointed out. Came back recently and notice that this issue still has not been addressed.
