Even around those levels quadding Spirocs, getting a full quad of 1 level into green con spirocs gave zero movement on the XP bar, killing 4 of them simultaneously provided less than 1/125th of the xp to level.
Yeah not sure on the formula but...

..I know for certain, say you're killing a blue con mob at a certain level, you ding, and that exact same mob is now green...its still really good XP (especially in a high ZEM area...think warrens / perma / CT / paw / kedge / hole / etc).

Now, ding again and kill that same mob and it starts to fall off drastically.

Safe to say that "1 level into green con" is still solid XP.

So more testing.

Level 30 green con mob gave 1.5% at level 42.
Level 30 green con mob gave 0.3% at level 43. Very obvious exp penalty.
Level 31 green con mob gave 1.5% at level 43.
Level 35 blue con mob gave 1.9% at level 43. Barely noticeable difference and considerably harder.

Certainly reaffirms my anecdotal evidence.

Are you still 43? Can you find the lowest con blue mob? (32? 33?)

Would love to see a difference between the easiest (lowest) blue and highest green. 1.5% for a green con is $$$$$$$$$$

I do know that at level 41 when the level 30 guards I was killing were still blue cons, I was still getting 1-2% per kill same as 42 when they first conned green. The difference in exp gain was not noticeable, I might have only had to kill a few more at level 42 to level vs level 41. Whereas at 43, I'd have to kill at least 4 times as many, something like 75% hit to the experience giving on those same guards.

Hole ent at 55 as a solo paladin is still pretty darn good despite the green cons.

Will definitely be 100% donezo at 56 tho.

(I started there at 50)

There is a range of blue mobs. For a while we had light blue and dark blue here.

When killing specters on Gustoo the dark blues we’re a significant exp improvement and took basically the same amount of mana since a solo cleric is like a wizard.

But as other mentioned when they go green, move on.
