Patrol XP - working at intended

My understanding of Patrol XP is that you get half the XP of the mob added to your XP gain. That amount is then subtracted from your saved up Patrol XP. Normal mobs only, not in AE.

However, it seemed to me that patrol XP was going away quicker than I expected, so wanted to test this.

Beat up some clocks with a lvl 19 scrapper in a mission (if that matters).

XP increased by 729. Patrol XP went down by 1,458?

Buh?

Edit - can't change thread title? /ashamed

Hm. I never paid attention to the actual decrements since it came out. That certainly doesn't sound right.

I know this question is way dumb, but you didn't have any debt at the time, right?

Nope, no debt.

Can you have debt and patrol XP at the same time?

No, I guess when I think about it clearly I can't think of a way that you can.

See, I told you it was a dumb question.

As I understand it, if you get debt while you have patrol XP, it's immediately subtracted from the patrol XP.

My mission. Not sk'd or exemplared.

Solo.

Shouldn't matter, but I am level-pacted.

Actually, that's exactly why. You received precisely half of your patrol XP that was used, because the other half went to your pactmate.
