Gaudrath✭✭✭I haven't, if anything they seem easier, but I'm still VR1 so it maybe is different at higher levels.1 -

✭✭✭It did seem that way than I realized that I hadn't repaired In ages. I am not quite sure that they didn't buff them a little bit though. This was against VR9 with VR8 and blue VR7 gear.Edited by PBpsy on May 22, 2014 9:24PMESO forums achievementsProud fanboiElitist jerkTrollHaterFan of icontested(rainbow colors granted)0 -
kasain✭✭✭They made them stronger, but also gave more exp on kill. Basicly same stats but more likely to use active traits now.1
-
meimei✭I was just grinding VR10 the Rift & the mobs not only have higher health they actually do more damage to you. I did not get and more experience from killing them, it's the same as before the patch.0

✭✭Seems like they want to cater to the few MMO junkies who haven't already gone to the next new game instead of the people who are likely to stay, inevitable price of when they allowed idiots who can BS to be managers & directors.10 -
D34thly✭✭Glad I'm not alone at least.. They said nothing about this in patch, but it seems like they hit twice has hard and have almost double hp or so. As a DK with Softcapped armor if I run out of stamina and can't block I get a 75% hp hit from a power attack. Note this isn't in great gear I'm using v7v-8 green blue gear at the moment.Blacklist DC NA

Ohioastro✭✭✭✭They did say that mobs in Cyrodil are V5 now, which should definitely be harder. They also boosted Cyrodil scaling and had kills gave more experience. There are also specific locations where they noted higher (or lower) difficulty. It may help to say where you are and what you're doing.2

KhajiitiLizard✭✭✭✭✭My god, solo in VR is pretty much impossible now.
This isn't from a boss but just standard enemies. I mean really? I don't even have an attack that can do that kind of damage. 1048 damage on a single attack? This isn't a boss!

VR content is broken, I think.
It was already difficult, but this is insane. Please fix asap.8 -
Maestro_Sartori✭✭✭Well theres goes my questing fun...and since most people refuse to group except for the really hard dungeons guess its time to move on.....10

halvee91_ESOSoul ShrivenI play a sorc and my current level is VR9 with mostly blue gear. Trying to level in the Rift is unbearable. Using the outfitter mod i used change builds depending on enemies. With the nerf to impulse, there is just no way i can kill 3 or more mobs now. The only way i could safely kill 2 mobs was with my pet class build because the damage the regular mobs put out is just ridiculous.0

Aaklor✭✭✭yep vr content is redic now. 2 mobs wipe the floor with me and I have over 2k armor at v8. gj zenimax....6
-
WhimsyDragon✭✭✭I was hoping for the opposite--that general vet content would be slightly less challenging. Seems like this is what players have been asking for and I've not heard a peep about wanting it to be harder

They're worth twice the XP now... so you have to work twice as hard.

✭✭✭✭✭It's a very slight change. All I've noticed is that I'm having to use more tactics on normal fights. Bosses don't seem to have been changed much.----

Mablung✭✭✭✭✭VR7 Nightblade here. I guess I was one of the few NBs that did not have too much trouble completing content in Vet zones until todays patch.
I can barely kill 1 mob 1v1. 2 now is a joke. Vet content was just fine where it was, This is ridiculous.8 -

VR5 Nightblade still having no trouble with up to 3 normal enemies, even if one of them is a minor boss.Edited by nerevarine1138 on May 22, 2014 11:07PM----

Letareus✭Glad it's not just me. VR10 mobs seem ridiculous now. Normal basic mobs have more than 4k health each. Regardless of what you think of this change, there's no excuse for not documenting such a major alteration in the patch notes.Edited by Letareus on May 22, 2014 11:13PM5

Double the hitpoints is a "slight" change?5
