So did they nerf the AA exp gained while doing Monster Missions?

Though as of last night some mage bolt spells such as scars of sigil were still not working properly.

yes, i (57 mage) too am having this issue. was trying to camp named spiders in Velk's and was having a tough time nuking them (i see why now). in retrospect, it was funny to watch me chain casting scars of sigil to no effect while being mobbed by 6 spiders. until i died that is.
