Old Alpha Paneleons Changed?

[Laurenz]

I have just a question. After i Killed a few thousand of them I noticed after last Update that it is almost Impossible to hunt them without Fap much. I have same gear and protection? Have someone else make same experience? What happen to them. They Hit almost same as Stalker now and this way i cant finish the Quest anymore.
When I scan them Stats are same i think than before.

Same thing has been noticed on various other mobs all around the universe - but strangely not all.
It is possible that MA somehow broke the damage calculation when introducing the new 'crit reduction'. Personally I am waiting for the minipatch on 17th to see if things go back to normal.
