Memory of Loneliness 2nd try no XP?

If you fail a memory of loneliness you don't get any XP on your second try, but it still removes XP if you die.

Is this intended? Seems unfair and unrewarding that you don't get any XP for killing mobs. I sure understand that if you do it intentionally and not completing the map and run the next it could be like a free T17 but wouldn't it be better to just remove or scale the loot instead of turning the XP off?

It also doesn't have the "Players do not gain experience" "Players do not lose experience on death" map mods
