Leeching level limit removed?

No, i didnt hit the newt.

I tested it myself, and it seems to be so.

Yes, i was in a party with a lvl 71, does it make a diffeence?

did the lvl 71 do anything to the newt? if he did then yes that suppose to happen, if u have someone lower than u hit something, even 1 dmg in a party, u will get some exp
if he didn't do anything to the newt and u get exp, that's another story
