Can we up the xp gain from them? only get 150 xp when it dies, can it be improved to around 400 xp. Since it pretty hard to lock at lower ranks (20,000 Damage needed) and there's nothing worth getting from it apart from gas vesicles when you have all the modules.

as much as ALL the high rank npcs should have their xp reward increased, i know why dan dosnt do it. you see, dan is trying to prevent people from speed leveling so he dosnt have to come out with both new high rank content AND low rank content. so, what he did was he incorporated a ton of really hard NPCs with low xp rewards, because #1, low ranks like you stated have a hard time locking and end up with a horrible xp ratio when it dies, and #2, because players who consistantly add rank points to tactical officers have no problem locking on them when they are near the top of the maximum level range. i wish the xp gained was higher, but i dont think its gonna happen.
