PVP XP increase

With the update going live in a few days, I'm wondering just how noticeable is the XP increase in Cyrodil. Has anyone tested this out?

I'm dying for PvP to be a realistic way to level a toon. Slower than PvE is fine, but as slow as it is now is ridiculous.

    The XP increase doesn't bother me as much as the exceptionally low AP earned given the massive amount of AP required to progress between levels, something very noticeable at Rank 10 and beyond.

    AP gain is fine as long as you know what you're doing, and i'm not talking about farming it.

    The top pvp ranks aren't meant to be achieved by every player, it's meant to be a long term carrot system. The average joe will spend several years trying to get grand warlord, and even the best AP farmers might not even get it in a year, and that's completely fine.

    Quoted for truth on both counts.

    As far as normal leveling XP from pvp, I'd like to see it be a reasonably competitive way to level a character as well (I mean the amount of XP earned vs. grinding/questing/etc.).

    Exploits suck. Don't blame just the game, blame the players abusing them!
