    Wow, do you guys love to whine, VR levels are to be challenging no matter what. Im very happy with the changes in difficulty. I dont want this game to be causal like World of Warcraft has become. If your VR7 and your dieing alot now, then redo your build or learn new tactics, You not suppost to face roll things when ur a Vet. That's the point. They made the PVE way to easy, at launch, way to easy. I am happy with this. I mean yeah, i am getting one shotted, but it just shows i need to change my gameplay, which i'm fine with. So plz stop your whining.

    I'm more along the line of changing my GAME instead of gameplay.

    Enjoy your masochist self.

    If I want another part-time chore this game is evolving into, I least want to get paid for ti.

    Enjoy your upcoming f2p.

    Has there been any kind of response from them anywhere? If not here, then reddit or somewhere? Just some kind of acknowledgement that it happened and whether or not it was intentional.

    I understand the angst but if we could please keep this relatively civil and devoid of threats to quit maybe this thread won't get closed and maybe will get responded to.

    Of course you have the right to be angry or feel like quitting but it might be helpful if we try to keep this thread productive and "maybe" someone will at least be willing to give us useful feedback.

    Nothing happens. Nobody comes, nobody goes. It's awful...

    Confirming that on PTS V11 NPCs in Craglorn were really no big problem in groups of 4-6 as a pre-made template V9 with half skills and solo. Sounds like something unintentional as generally Veteran content the NPCs were harder but reasonably balanced previously.

    But what kind of game company will not even tell us after this many hours and threads?

    It may be they don't have an answer yet and are afraid to just say that. Companies often underestimate the loyalty of their customers and how far being honest goes even if it's just "We are aware of issue X and are working on a resolution" or "These changes were intended"... I think it's human nature to be afraid to express the weakness of not having an answer or the strength to just say "that's how it is"... they think silence is better.

    You might be right. But Zenimax could take a leaf out of carbine's books on this issue. People admire honesty and Carbine has been up front about their game and that alone will get them loyal customers. Since January i have been saying that zenimax has to be more forthcoming. Its been almost 2 months post launch now and they still havent been open about their game.

    Pointless troling.

    If they are really naive enough (or even arrogant enough) to think silence does less damage than the truth this many hours after the patch, then there is no hope long term for this game IMO.

    It may be awhile... hopefully they will say something. They have to realize a long holiday weekend with no response isn't a good thing. Well, it's never good, but maybe they'll pop up soon and enlighten us!

    So these are Kagouti:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtPOVGr_EFs

    They have just short of 3,900 HP each. These are VR 3 mobs fighting fully passive decked, heavy armor, overcharged sword and board DK.

    Sure, potions could be used, or single mobs fought until ultimate came up. But I hardly think that is the point.

    Don't mean to spam this, but it needs to be known.

    There we go:
    Hallo zusammen,
    Die Regler für die Veteraneninhalte wurden etwas zu hoch eingestellt. Wir werden das zurücknehmen.

    English:

    The controllers for veteran contents were somewhat highly adjusted too. We will take that back

    When? well, for sure befor next Patch.

    We have a response from Gina @ Zenimax:
    Hey guys,

    This change was not intended, though some VR content and monsters are indeed more difficult after yesterday’s patch. We are working on a fix now to revert the difficulty back to what you were familiar with prior to patch 1.1.2, and plan to have this rolled out in the next 24 hours. Thanks so much for your patience!

    It's an error.

    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.
