Actions and Skills that should reward XP but currently don't

Various skills and actions that are currently unrewarding besides warm fuzzy feelings. Until warm fuzzies can be used toward ranks or refunding skills, XP should be added.

Could be added simply - x amount per action:
- Building Forts
- Pattern Weaving
- Arcane Wells
- Wormholes
- Faunabond rejuves
- Font/Mound creation

More complicated - how could these be calculated fairly?
- Glyphing
- Aura damage
- Buffing
- Debuffing (unless already rewarded XP from damage caused)

Maybe list - arguments for or against:
- Recharging spellgems
- Transmuting
- Something else cat forgot

Could be added simply - x amount per action:
- Building Forts might as well with barricades
- Pattern Weaving suppose
- Arcane Wells certainly costs enough ap i guess lol
- Wormholes per use i guess ye
- Faunabond rejuves 'kay
- Font/Mound creation possibly the biggest black hole yet

More complicated - how could these be calculated fairly?
- Glyphing per trigger/per destruction on protection perhaps, though suppose just destruction most realistic
- Aura damage no, but aura kills should count + slated to
- Buffing we're a bit outside the realms of feasibility now since this is like 50 in 1 separate bits
- Debuffing (unless already rewarded XP from damage caused) most debuffs do give xp (think curses)

Maybe list - arguments for or against:
- Recharging spellgems prol not but maybe for extreme mp charges
- Transmuting don't want to deal with people complaining about transmute pinball for xp
- Something else cat forgot arcane channel
i quote your thing and violet it

YES! XP on everything! When my Pet Master could gain 1300XP++ and still have AP to go home I don't think we should be frugal on giving XP on small things.
