You should refer to each dragon skill. It shows the exact amount of XP gained per use As such, there is no maximum XP gained for the dragon for each battle. It's all the matter of rage and utilizing the high-XP gain skills.

Here's the XP at max skill level. You can use it as a referrence because the table is pretty much the same for the lower levels:

Crushing blow - 34 XP
Treasure Searcher - 17 XP
Ball of Lightning - 46 XP
Mana Accelerator - 29 XP
Mystic Egg - 33 XP
Stone Wall - 39 XP
Dragon Dive - 28 XP
Battle frenzy - 37 XP
Burning Lava - 40 XP

Thanks for the table. Having played a bit more I am starting to feel pretty confident there is a cap on dragon exp that is tied in a ratio to total hero exp gained.

I did a sneak game on impossible with a warrior. My first battle was an invincible battle against the emerald dragon on rusty island against the emerald dragon and 4 groups of dragonflies. My dragon gained 1600 exp going from lvl 1 to lvl 1 lvl 14 in one battle. I used 200 rage.

The next battle I fought against the first group of monsters on debir. I used 400 rage this battle. But I gained only 14 exp. Less than 1% of my first battle, even though twice the rage was used. My dragon also had +60% learning, which he did not the first battle.

Phantom on inquisitors works wonderfully to generate infinite rage for pet use. Because the 3-10 mana from an inquisitor generates on average 19.5 mana in 3 uses, which is more than the 15 mana phantom spell, it is possible to generate infinite rage each battle. But this appears rather pointless early game as pet exp seems to be tied to battle exp.

Not a bad thing as you would otherwise be able to max the dragons level in a single battle once you find phantom.
