Probably not needed, but maybe included to try to get more people to run it? I know for any high key most people I know avoided CoEN like the plague, which is a shame, it's a cool dungeon! :D

Yeah, there's very little focus on enjoyment when it comes to high M+ runs unfortunately :p It's just, I want my loot ASAP, with as little trouble and effort as possible.

90% nerfs to Garrote & Dark Solitude. like seriously? Those abilities have been there since the dungeons launched. They didn't even bother compensating by increasing damage output of other abilities to make out for that; not to mention how trivial damage of the aforementioned abilities has become.

They might be phasing these dungeons into becoming "farmable-tier" to make way for more in future patches? It's far too much of a nerf, though.
