It's not half, it's less, but it's not half. At 55 if you're doing suits you'll get over 1% per quad and occasionally see a 2% tick up.

In any event, at 55, you should just stick with wyverns until 57. Suits respawn too slowly and require too much mana to kill compared to the number of wyverns you can contest for. At 55 you should be able to grab 8 and do 2 quads with one bar of mana and maybe a harvest if you don't have good enough gear, about every 10-11 minutes. More if you just go port and grab C2/POTG regularly which you can't do at suits nor is it as useful. Suits are 4 mobs every 14.5 minutes, you spend like 3 minutes at full mana doing nothing, it's an inefficient use of your time until they're literally the only option.

You're right, 55 requires only 33% less xp than 54 does, not 50%
It's just that CS is often crowded with druids/ wizards quadding said mobs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] and when'Im waiting on suits to repop I can snag some CoV faction with Laborers / mercs too.

Off to CS again then

I found that perseverance and being competitive with the mobs is key, eventually people leave because they have no mobs to kill, and then you have the zone mostly to yourself for awhile until other people come in to try.

You'll have periods where there's a lot of competition, just stick it out, if someone hasn't touched the mob but is staring at it, take it, they're too slow. The harder you fight for mobs the more people want to give up, which gives you more mobs. Then just be vigilant about avoiding Yvolcarn and Azureake and you're fine.
