Sorry to say it blunt, but this is nonsense.
The other guy was already 55 levels higher, so he ALREADY went those 55 levels at the normal rate. Now, he has lost some levels and he is hitting somebody above his AL (but not his VL) so he is getting the xp he should be getting when he wasn't delevelled. He is just regaining lost levels.
On another note, I noticed you are level 995. I assume you are *not* going to buy Smashing Hammer and Coordinated Attacks buffs for your hunt? Because using buffs which you can't cast yourself isn't fair when you are levelling. Those who reached 995 before you, and did it the very first times didn't had access to Smashing Hammer and Coordinated Attack. Just do the math and see how far you can get those levels without access to the level 1000-1200 buffs. I assume that you will notice that you will be 2hitting more then you are doing now. Those who hit those high levels earlier, did it without all the buffs and gear we have now.
I also find this to be nonsense.
Your buff comparison is flawed. Those buffs did not exist, so how can that be held against me.
"He is just regaining LOST levels." I like this statement. And it proves my point. If you lose something, why should it be easier for you to regain? If on accident I delete an epic, it is lost. I do not get to purchase one at a reduced price, or gain one with reduced limits, it was lost, just like the levels.
