When you create a custom critter, you have 4 settings when picking power sets. When you click on standard, hard or extreme you will notice certain powers are pre-selected. In order to receive xp for customs you are not allowed to remove any of the pre-selected powers.
You are able to add powers to the pre-selected powers and still earn xp. The key lays with not removing any of the pre-selected powers.
Now if a minion on standard is pre-set with 3 powers from any given set you are not able to swap out one of the 3 for another and still earn xp. The fact that the minion still has 3 powers means nothing.
Whichever powers are pre-selected at the given setting must remain selected.
If you say you didn't change any of the pre-selected powers, then I have no clue what it could be.
Don't worry about it too much though, as I17 will bring about changes in how XP is calculated for custom critters (for the better).

I am new to this part of the forums, so hello community!
I have begun creating an AE arc focused around our supergroup and am slowly realizing the changes in XP. For example, I created 3 minions, 2 LTs and 2 bosses but only certain minions are granting xp and others are not. Is there a reason for this?
Does this have something to do with the fact of low/low to high/high powers selected?
