Did you play it on the PTR? Day one the ghouls were unkillable grief machines. By day three I had 3 of them (The pvp ones) attack me and couldn’t break through my azerite shield.
The only people that might be effected are the lowbies, and as of the time of the ptr test they hadn’t added scaling for low levels yet. It’s honestly not going to be anything near the doom and gloom everybody is whining about.
