**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened?**  
Usually the Monster Difficulty did not apply to PvP but to my surprise my couple of PvP games have 200% (Warlord IV) applied to it 😮

**What are the steps to make it happen again?**  
Play PVP on Warlord IV difficulty

**Do you have any screenshots or video you want to share with us so we can see the problem? Attach them to your post!**  
None but reproducible

Hmm… Odd not reproducible anymore. I noticed at that time in PvP menu that I can adjust monster difficulty consistently. now after restarting the game, the option is no longer there. Really puzzling. Was pretty sure not in explore mode as i can choose 3 opponents when that happens

Maybe you were in casual pvp? Cause you can adjust the difficulty there
