For those who don't know, turning PvP on provides you with extra XP. Some have questioned whether PvP grants additional XP. This chart shows that PvP does grant additional XP.
When you did this, did you do the non-PvP in a private instance? FYI, it's +10% XP for open instance and +10% XP for PvP. When you flag for PvP, you are automatically put into open instances. The bonus that you're showing is double what the bonus actually is for PvP.
that was true, but it was changed in r96. (the player instructions currently show them swapped, i'll fix that for next month.) (edit: and the attenuation numbers) not unless the scene itself is a pvp zone.
