Flame all you want after you read.. But,

Did something change in PVE?
If and when im on my 80, month ago i barely soloed a named at lvl 12.
3 days ago it took another + my self on the same 80 to kill the same lvl 12 named.
Today i tried, it took 10 people and i kept going down?? wtf..

Nothing has changed for my self, but i did notice im not hitting over 300
(Previously was hitting average of 700 mentored)
per hit with my great sword. Yeah, my DPS has went down, also the mobs hit
me like if i WAS lvl 12 all over again.

Im not crying about how i CANT solo it, But if i put my time and effort into
my toon and spent all this time Started back on beta and all the sudden the
toon iv put all this time into is now same as lvl 12 with lvl 2 gear?
Come on now.. Am i just trippin? Or Gw2 did change things and made
everyone equal no matter WHAT lvl and WHAT gear??

I did notice some dungeons – One day HARD, Next day Easier, next day easy?
Come guys, figure it out and stick with it.. Geez.

80 Guard – Tank/DPS spec – Never changed gear or spells for over 40 days.
What gives?

Have you checked the patch noted at all in the last month?

Heres a hint
“Dynamic Leveling
Attribute calculations for dynamic level scaling have been rebalanced. In general, this means weaker when adjusted down, stronger when adjusted up. Rewards when adjusted down have been increased to compensate. It is now possible to receive your own level of loot from any level of enemy.”

1. what is your suggestion?
2. If you are doing an event solo one day it scales for one person if 10 people are there the next day it scales the named mob up to match the amount of participants.
3. Also what Adine said about scaling down and up.
4. Same dungeon different people maybe.

Yeah….nice change too, IMO. Though, its not as bad as some make it out. Exotic (or above) geared toons still have an advantage. But it can still surprise you if you go in expecting a cakewalk.

Welcome to the compromise between vertical and horizontal progression. I hope you enjoy your stay after the initial warm-up period.
