High Keep Contested XP?

With the expansion, the XP from zones like The Hole, Skyshrine, and High Keep Contested were put on a diminishing returns curve so that if you are over level 95, these zones grant as little as 1/10th of their normal XP.

This is all in the interest of steering players towards the current zones. Never mind that Dungeon Maker grind zones still award enough XP that a players can reach level 100 in as little as an hour.

The overall point can be debated, but a very specific question was raised on the forums — why is High Keep Contested roped into this change? It’s still relevant content and still presents a challenge. 

Kander seems to have considered the point worth investigating and so will be looking at the XP curve for the zone.
