I used to PVE exclusively from Summerset(when I started playing) until about a year ago. I ran vet everything I could get my grubby little hands on and was pretty good at it. About a year and a half ago I got hooked on PVP and have rarely PVE'd except to obtain an item like a mythic etc. I haven't PVPed since the patch either due to working on High Isle achievements. I've been reading about the combat changes and have just relegated them to normal changes and figured they would not be that bad.....
I was incorrect in my assumption. Last night I was doing the weekly endeavor where you complete six group dungeons. I was soloing Fungal Grotto One on Vet and noticed a significant difference even on trash mobs. I made it to the final boss and finally just gave up and restarted on normal. Keep in mind I just run to the one boss you have to kill to open the door and then jump off the cliff to avoid all the others. I can say it was NOT fun, it felt like wading through molasses. Honestly I've quit this game once before due to combat changes that were made to a few toons and if it's this bad then it may be time for another break. I understand the changes are probably due to power creep and ZoS is trying to lower the curve but at the expense of loosing the enjoyment of the game?
