Increase it please.

That is all.

This is a wonderfully thought-out argument, and I cannot believe that such a brilliant mind has yet to join the ranks of our top litigators.

I know, right?

Actually, Elite Bosses DO give quite a bit more XP than bosses.

HOWEVER, scaled-down AVs and Heroes only give a marginally better amount of XP than bosses and I do agree that scaled-down AVs should give actual EB-like XP.

For starters, the actual EBs already set a standard. To give scaled-down AVs different XP-rewards is just... arbitrary. Furthermore, scaled-down AVs are potentially more difficult than normal EBs, due to powers-selections tailored towards AVs and the presence of Purple Triangles. It makes little sense that a harder enemy gives less XP than a weaker enemy, based on the Risk-vs-Reward ratio that the devs try to balance.

The reason why it seems like that EBs give pitful, boss-like XP is that there are actually few genuine Elite bosses in the game, and we meet lots more AVs and Heroes, or their scaled-down EB versions if we solo or play in small teams.

Long story short, it makes little sense that a scaled-down AV/Hero-type enemy gives Boss-type XP, especially because there's precedence in genuine EBs giving more XP than bosses.
