Luring enemy into traps - no xp?

Hello folks,
I had some trouble with 4 knights yesterday, so I lured them onto a previously closed trap-hatch and opened it so the whole gang dropped into depth/death. But I realized I did not get any XP, at least there was no "*XX experience points received".
Did I miss something? Or is this just "by design"?
Regards

@Devs: Thanks a lot for this game. My Xbox360 and PS3 are off since Wednesday...

I'd almost guess that these monsters didn't die, and are still wandering around...
on the floor below you.
Has anyone tested that? You'd basically just drop a monster in a trap and then follow them down.
I did this too in one spot. I wasn't surprised by the lack of XP though. I expected it, to be honest.
I wouldn't worry. You will have plenty of time to gain that xp back!

Are you sure they died, the knights I've dropped have survived the fall? I jumped in after them to finished them. And squished a giant snail when I landed.
But anyway, no. XP is given to characters individually for participating in a fight, idle chars don't get any. So if nobody hacks at them then nobody is considered to have participated.

I am also sure they died, as I found a whole bunch of spears and shields down there...

Hm, I am quite sure I did one or two hits before realizing "you should run now". Maybe I will try once more tonight.
