A monk thats as well equipped as you can get WITHOUT Ntov+ level gear. we're talking all the highest AC items that Luclin offered single groups like Algs Belt, Slighted Pauldrons, Stone Visor & all the best buyable stuff Tstaff/Fungi/COF
Pre-Patch
Solo vs Gorgana ended fight with NO Mend 3 Bulbs of Health left on average
Post Patch:
Solo vs Gorgana used Mend. 1 to 2 Bulbs of Health Left.
Another way to look at it.
PrePatch: Took 2 Bulbs
PostPatch: Took 4 to 5.
Analysis: 2 to 2.5 * as much damage.
Now keep in mind this is soloing Gatherers which poorly equipped monks couldnt do in the first place.

Light Blue/Green Rockhoppers next door in DSP.
Prepatch: Could do 2 at a time no mend, 3 with mend.
Post Patch: 2 win every time.

Noticed the other posted who said while camping 3 snowcougar greenies could beat him.

Same is true world over as Monks find themselves being crushed by mobs they used to beat
