 After diablerizing, you gain 1 XP, 4 if you drop a generation. You also suffer an automatic path degeneration. This can be altered with any variant of Amaranth/Bitter Rose to gain no experience but gain the ability to make a simple chop, losing ties to avoid the degeneration. Kindred on Paths of Caine do not suffer the automatic degeneration, but do still make a simple chop and win ties if they are in the room with someone they have Vaulderied with.
