Stealth PVE Nerf/Buffs?

I have been doing the SS/LB rep wurm runs for the last month cranking up reps. In the last couple days I have noticed the enemy are focus firing on team like crazy now and the are interrupting like mad. In fact in the 100+ 5 man runs I have done I have never ever seen an entire team wipe. The last two days I have seen it happen three times because "wails" were flat out being shut down.

I have also been doing the Shadow Nexus challenge to get armor for Heroes. Previously I was able to get 100+points easy with my hero team, today out of 6 runs the highest I could score was 84. It seems like both the Terrors and Chaos are hitting much harder now but whats worse is the Rifts seem to be spawning much faster ending rounds a lot quicker.

So I am thinking there were some hidden Nerf/Buffs in the last update anyone else notice this?

Nope, I was doing some ss/lb runs yesterday with h/h HM, I never got wiped. They might be interrupting like mad cause the Though Leech has Cry of Frustration.

I haven't noticed any difference in SS/LB runs. Only had one or two party wipes in I don't know how many runs. Can't say about Shadow Nexus though. I wouldn't put it past ANet to buff things like that, no one else may have caught it yet is all.

If they've buffed Shadow Nexus i'll be pissed off, I was planned to get some armour there over the next week. Never done it before so I won't know it's been buffed though. ^^

Just tried The Shadow Nexus, made 205 points and 3 armour pieces in a 17 minute run with heroes. If they buffed it then I can't imagine how easy it was before...

(admittedly my score wasn't great compared to the leaderboard, but it was my first time and I placed 15th today )

I need to do that sometime to get my heroes into HoM but challenge missions tend to rather bore me

I used Sabs heroes and I ran Ursan Blessing, Sever Artery, Gash, "For Great Justice", Enraging Charge, Pain Inverter, "Watch Yourself!" and Sunspear Rebirth Signet.

14 Sword
10 Strength
10 Tactics.

I do have a demonslaying sword mod and r8 LB which might have made it easier.
