Having spent an inordinate amount of time in the bear pits, I definitely notice a big difference. The thing is, insta charm breaks/root breaks happened all the time previously, and it always seemed to come in a string of bad luck once in awhile. Now it's more of the same, only the 'bad luck' seems to be insanely bad, to the point where I'm literally in little to no danger for three hours straight, then suddenly a wolf resists root four times in a row, then it lands and is instantly broken twice, then it's resisted twice more. Also, straight resisting (not spells quickly breaking) Magic based spells (root/Breath of Ro, for me) is happening significantly more than pre-patch.
I'm not really complaining--didn't die at all, played a little more conservatively due to increased likelihood of disaster. It just seems odd how exping down there is practically identical except that now, when it rains, it pours.
