DC give more Alliance Points than EP?

So I play on AD side and from I have noticed from a day of PvPing is that killing DC (blue) players give Alot more AP than Killing EP (red) players.
From killing the DC players I usually get about 400-900 AP but the EP usually only give me like 20-200 AP:
And these are fights with none around me except me myself and the enemy.

Anyone else also had a similar experience?

    You get less AP when you kill the same enemy. Maybe you killed the EP dude already,.

Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    You get less AP when you kill people who haven't killed or gathered that many AP. DC players in NA are either spamming healing springs like crazy or kill a lot more than EP.

    Yeah DC players have to be good at not dying because of our low numbers. Often times, we've only got one shot at capping a keep before the zerg shows up. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I never die because that would be ridiculous *cough* but players who haven't died for at least 6 minutes are going to be worth significantly more AP than players who have.

    EP typically die a lot and don't kill very much, this leads to them being worth very little comparatively to the much more skilled DC players.

    Using numbers from the OP:

    Average AD kill = 650 AP, to get Anonymous Elf's 7,093,039 AP requires 10,912 kills against DC/AD.

    Killing ppl who haven't just walked out a wayshrine is worth significantly more. Faction irrispective, you are what you eat. Defending multiple fronts where they are traveling to you and killing on the way and having a group that deals a lot of dmg as opposed to tagging means the diff between peanuts and 250-300 a kill in a group situation.

    Codex and Kill Counter both do not correctly track kills nor deaths in this game. The API is extremely limited, I don't really know why these addons even exist.
