So am I missing something or was Erris stealth nerfed? She used to award the most XP of all tamers I think, and now my level 12 carry got.....92 XP.

What's going on? Did someone else notice something?

I was just about to post this, my carry pets got 40xp each... sucks if this is intended.

My level 12 carry only got about 84 xp from Kura today. I hope this wasn't an intended change! Getting that boost of experience for one of my pets every day is the only reason I go out of my way to find her in other people's garrisons every day! (Already have the pets.)

My pet got full experience early this afternoon when I ran it. Weird.

I'll pay more attention tomorrow. Today I got something like 5k+, which is around what I usually get.

Dak.

My level 7 carry pet only received 92 experience this evening (with Safari Hat on). Here's hoping it's a bug and not a stealth nerf.

Blizz is trying to send us a hint: GTFO out of your garrisons.

Hmm, it seems one of my friends still got the usual ~5k exp for his level 1 carry today. Weird!

It is consistent mathematically with the menagerie nerf. I tossed out a tweet to the crafticus and warcraft devs. Might not hurt if you chime in.

My lvl 20 pet got 64xp. Came here to see if anyone else is experiencing this. I cannot find anything about it and yesterday it was fine. Did they do some type of restart today to cause this?

The same thing happened to me. Loaded up my level 6 crawdad with buffs (50% biscuit + safari hat) and got... 132 exp.

My lvl 22 carry got 47xp from Kura today.

I noticed this evening when I logged in there was something that required I restart bnet before I could play. Was there a mini patch of some sort that nerfed the traveling trainers?

Worked fine yesterday, but today i only got 84 XP. Really weird. Hope they didn't nerf it.

I got 47 today on my level 22 carry pet... I was in a raid. Did anyone get reduced xps in their own garrison?

I visited a garrison much earlier today to fight Erris and got full XP, so either this change isn't consistent across the board, or it somehow snuck in this afternoon. Whatever it is, I'm just facepalming with aggravation.

Since there appears to be a mixture of some getting full exp and some not I'd like to ask the question about whether people actively used their levelling pet in combat. Was the pet just swapped in and then out again without using any abilities? Maybe there was a fix to combat the "free" turn abused to level pets in this manner?

A mere 68 xp today for my lvl 1 carry Was the battle with 2 birds and the bone serpent.

Seems a pointless nerf if intended.

Guess we should expect no more xp from the 1 remaining menagerie battle too...

My carry saw proper action, starting out the battle and attacking once before swapping.

I haven't done Kura today (yet)..... But yesterday, which was also patch day (odd, as it was thursday), I got ~6K xp (incl Safari hat) from the fight..

I fought the team with Spores/Dusty/Salad, in case it matters.
Levelling pet was swapped into the fight in round 6 or 7, and petformed NO action, before swapped out..

used zeppelin explode on bone serpent pet, lvl 1 was out for a turn, passed so bone serpent would die again and got only 72 exp.

ok, so a couple people have used their pets in combat and still got bad exp. Probably rules that out. Maybe the pet level makes a difference. If it's too low perhaps? I usually use a level 1 pet and today got diddly exp - yesterday getting enough to go straight to level 12 from level 1.
