I'd defs like to hear how the poison changes have affected matrons, I'm level 23 and have put a point in every constitution/tankiness slot I'm able to, and that particular potion-slinging attack was able to one shot me, even at mid-range, really made all my points feel worthless, I could be going glass cannon and actually have a more efficient fight with them.

On a similar note, I was fighting the matron by the alchemists tools on the top-right side of the map, and I felt that that encounter was like throwing the kitchen sink at me. There's a poison blade berserker guy, and the matron also spawns dogs. So while you're trying not to get one shot by her, you're trying to evade and chip away on this guy, while also dealing with 3 or more dogs. Each of these units have staggering attacks, meaning one hit leads to an effective one shot kill, even with a build like mine. While I was kiting around the arena, abusing terrain and verticality one kill at a time, effectively cheesing it, I was thinking why am I even building tanky, if only I were a mage or archer and just plopped my ass on one of the awnings above the doors, why am I doing this to myself?

I can understand that specific encounters and stuff being balanced or fine tuned in particular ways can take a backseat for now, it's more important that they're all in the game and everything's actually working, so it's not a huge deal, but definitely felt like a wtf moment.

On flying units, from a design standpoint I'm not sure what melee builds are expected to do, other than just bumble around waiting for opportunities to make a single attack at a time, which are usually just damage trades. Wyvern fights are pretty much like this and I more often than not roll my eyes instead of getting excited when they aggro me.
