I'm of course not asking for anyone to go dig into the game logs to figure out exactly why we got so much XP but here is the situation.
My friend and I decided to do a dungeon, we're both level 50 at this point, my friend in the low 20's of champion points and me in the 120's.
This is the first dungeon we're playing, I think, whatsoever. We queue up using the dungeon finder for a random normal dungeon. We ended up going through Blackheart Haven.
When we complete the dungeon my friend gained about 18-20 champion points and I gained 7-8 of them.
We've not been able to reproduce this XP gain afterwards.
We've thought about:
- Perhaps this was the first dungeon that day, so the daily bonus was the source
- Perhaps we had both the "enlightened" bonus and our 50% xp bonus scrolls going
We've done other dungeons in the days afterwards, both as the "first dungeon that day" as well as having the aforementioned bonus XP going. Neither have given us anything close to that amount of XP, it's more like I get 1 champion point and my friend gets 2-3.
The dungeon we did that first day, could it be that it gives that much more XP than other dungeons?

Everyday, having two first runs in dungeons using the Dungeon Finder gives bonus XP.
The first run will give tons of bonus XP and a purple item in your mailbox. The second run will give you a bit more XP than normal and a blue item in your mailbox.
The third run, or any without using the dungeon finder will not give you any additional XP or items in the mailbox.
