Prestige Nerf?

I was running Doc in RWZ missions at +1x4 and was only getting 6 prestige per enemy. I know it used to be a lot more than this. Was there a nerf or is there a mechanic I am not aware of?

Right, but *which mobs* is what I'm asking?

Did you somehow end up with a Rikti Monkey heavy mission? I wouldn't be surprised to see barely any Prestige there - in fact, I'd think you had too much. Was it one of the ones packed with Drones? Or did you have a Comm Officer convention?

(I'm not being facetious with the first two examples - I've had missions that seemed to be nothign but Rikti Monkeys and a keeper, or what had to be a drone storage warehouse.)

Everything. Over the course of an entire mission, Bosses, minions, Lieutenants; nothing netted more than 6 prestige per enemy over the course of 5 missions.

Sounds like a bug, certainly.

Few questions:
1. Do you have... whatever the name of that prestige booster temp power is (can't think of it) and is it active?
2. If so, were you in SG mode?
3. Did you fight any rikti *outside* of missions that should have given prestige?
4. Did you fight any other mob types that should have, and did they do the same thing?

.... mostly to see if anyone else can see the same thing, really. I'd still /bug it and/or PM avatea or zwillinger and bring their attention to this thread.

Edit: I can say, after just one spawn, that I'm not seeing it.

Okay,

Just checked on this by running a Borea mission at +1x8.
Was getting significantly more than 6 prestige per.

I was farming rikti in the warzone on Saturday while waiting for a trial to start and got full prestige. Didn't run any boreas though.

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

I'll keep my eyes on it. I wasn't the only one in the mission seeing the same results.

I was in SG and I was not using any boosters. No I didn't defeat anything outside of the missions.

Thanks for the info nonetheless.

How may of you were in the mission ?

prestige is split evenly amongst the entire team.
