Have recently noticed enemies killed by damage return dont grant exp. Think this is intended?

Have this pretty cool armor

Legendary fossilized scale armor
Level Req: 40
Physical Defense: 42 to 168
Magical Defense: 28 to 84

+117% Enhanced Effect
+5 Dexterity
+19 Vitality
+8 Mana Regen
+1 to 1 Life per Attack
+7% Damage Return
+2% Magical Damage Reduction

But feel the damage return ruins it because often i find monsters just vanishing and the attacks i spent on the monster are for nothing. Should no exp be granted to a monster killed by damage return? What do you guys think ty

You are aware there is one monster that will run away when low life?

if 7% dmg return on a tank armor leads to too many monster selfkills you are doing something wrong either way ^^
It should give exp though

Test your damage return and xp gain by lowering monster hit points, move your character back and forth while healing yourself until the monster dies to Damage return... this way you will find out whether you are gaining experience or not.

I'm pretty sure he is implying that he has tested it.

As for damage return, it has been a glitchy stat for the longest time. I hoped that with the rewrite most of those would have been fixed but you should post in the bugs forum and hopefully he can clean that up!

Let’s revert to the drop bug glitch instead of xp loss

Not sure if it was an actual test or just glancing at it on occasion. The only change made to Damage Return that I can recall is when it got abused in finding drops, if it is true that no experience is given when damage return kills a monster, we can look at it two ways:

1. It is intentional because your character did NOT kill it, it killed itself by its' own damage.
2. It isn't intended this way and needs to be fixed.

It’s working as intended.
