I agree, and in fact will go as far as to state that my prior disbelief has somewhat lessened, especially in light of what we know now.
I'm actually pretty happy about the seemingly fixed FE damage, and hopefully fixed gloam damage, as it means that melee chars can actually adventure without being too fearful of what mods a boss has, and also that insta-death from miles off screen might not be so common (conviction bosspack could still be as deadly though).
