Before, I could select battle hardiness in the quest line, just as in “Explore” activity. It seems, I cannot do that in the quests anymore. Is it right? Moreover, every single battle during quest line is L1 now. Is it intended to be that way? Why? **How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?** Noticed this with quest line just now, so it probably wasn’t this way in the previous (class?) event. But I am not sure there. Not extremely long anyway, as I definitely had difficulty slider in the previous Underground realm. **Steps to make it happen again** 1. Participate in quests. 2. Watch L1 enemies everywhere. ---

I think it was the same way when the last faction was released. ---

By design, or at least an unintended consequence of a design decision. The difficulty sliders are gone. They aren’t coming back. Now a quest’s difficulty is determined by “how far it is from Broken Sword”. This one’s an easy one. This was done so new players have a better sense of “an order” to kingdoms. They probably didn’t think about “Oh yeah, quests are part of Delve progression which isn’t bound to kingdom order”. ---

I was wondering the same, this is quite an oversight. It was pretty boring going through faction quests with all enemies being level one. ---

IIRC this also happened when the City of Thieves faction came out, and it was confirmed by devs to be a bug. ---

Yeah, it’s a bug that will be fixed in 4.6. ---

Eh. I’ve been playing quests on normal difficulty since the beginning. I rather go through it quickly and just enjoy the story
