Did PvP stats get nerfed sometime in the last year?

I queued up for battlegrounds today on a low level new character (lvl 10 and again at lvl 15) and my recovery stats were like 50 and all of my resource stats were like divided by 2 (30k magicka outside of PvP, 15k inside PvP)?

I feel like in the past recovery on a new character in BGs was not this bad, but I could be wrong. Does anyone know?

I noticed that today when I was on my under 50 character, I and others were confused, with a lot of people having under 15k health and having nearly no stamina and magicka to really use any abilities more than a few times before running on empty.

All sub 50 stats seem squished. I only had 200 regen as well

My friends too were noticing a decrease aswell in stats and recoveries. I myself noticed for example that my Dk was super tanky before update 49, and now it can barely hold the damage. I was able to run ironclad and resilience and be decently tanky enough. Now? I have to put 3-4 defensive cps on blue tree because we'll ... its not as tanky anymore.

Can you find any post or discussion from the devs about these changes? I can't really find anything on it. I quit early 2025, and just came back to the game for U49, and at some point in that time gap the changes were made, but I can't find any info on it.

Also Battle Spirit says nothing about it, but it does show the most recent change from U49 notes: reduced healing debuff when 8 or more healing over time effects

I think under-50 battlegrounds are broken at the last update. There was some scaling that allowed level 10's to have similar stats to level 49's. Now it seems there is no scaling, so level 40+ have significantly better stats than level 10's in battlegrounds.

As far as I can tell, there is no announcement for this change, so I am assuming/hoping it is an unintended bug.

I think maybe. Damage of my Dizzy in Cyro with Continuous and the exact same build as prepatch is about 1k less than it was prepatch. I could be missing something though... maybe cyro bonuses... idk
