Am I getting weaker with every new level?

Is that just a feeling or is it reality? Am I getting weaker with every level?

E.g. Wall of Elements - at level 20 it ticked for ~ 1.3k and now on level 32 it ticks for 1k (same buffs only better / higher equip). The same with other skills. I feel like I am doing less damage the higher my level is.

Is this normal?

    Yes. At lower levels the game gives you higher bonuses to your stats to put you on par with the content.

    As you level, the game rolls back on the stat bonuses and you have to fill in the gaps with better gear and skill line passives.

    Ok look at it this way.

    Before 1t...

    At lvl 20 with lvl 20 gear you fought lvl 20 enemies and your level 20 damage/gear did fine.
    But at level 32, if your gear was still lvl 20 while fighting lvl 32 enemies you would be having trouble doing damage etc.

    It works the same way now - same overall result - just the displayed numbers are not as intuitive.

    Thank you very much. I never thought about how the level adjustment system (or how you name it) works now but as you explained it I have a better feeling for this now.

    It's a little bit like the system in Cyrodiil, isn't it? There I get more HP and less damage but my healing is reduced by 50% as well.
