Yeah somehow i liked that better aswell you didnt have the feeling off i need to get too 80 like in this game. Beceause off that i enjoyed the game more somehow. Lets hope we wont see a lvl increase with expension just harder mobs and better armor.

Boris your a genius....

Who's Boris? Colin's brother?

Anyway, the update didn't make the lower level zones any harder for me. But then again, I've been able to get to 80 pretty much by autoattacking foes while my pet is bumping heads with them. I completed the Wychmire Swamp event (the big wurm) with two level 80s in 30 seconds tops and that was while shooting Husks as well because I wanted the achievement.

I think to make those areas truly difficult I probably should unequip my armor or something... You know what, I'm going to try just that

EDIT: made it a lot more enjoyable. I was still using my lvl 80 exotic weapons so I was doing quite some damage myself, but I needed to dodge and evade a lot more and veterans actually do damage now. I have to make sure people don't mistake me for a bot though, running around without armor and all...

As for the re-scaling, if everything was equally rewarding, wouldn't players simply gravitate to the most engaging content?

That one gets into much murkier territory...  Atleast it did when it came to GuildWars1.  Just look at any feedback about the Winds of Change, esp. in Hardmode.  There were ALL SORTS of arbitrary unexplainable levels of various gravitation in the Gw1 all throughout its lifetime.  The one I never understood in particular, was Fissure of Woe.   ...or another example:  Glint's Challenge VS. the Shadow Nexus.  Not only was the former easier to solo, it was also a lot more Aesthetically superior. ...yet....

I suppose you have not played in the lower leveled areas since the patch then?

It is not possible for most professions to one or two shot most mobs.

I have.  And I regularly 2-3 shot things in mediocre (almost all rare) gear.  I sometimes one-shot with a meaty hammer +2 crit (guardian).

I did an event alongside another 80 with twilight (and presumably all exotic armor) and I didn't have a chance to tag anything if I didn't get to it first.

More adjustments need to be made.
