MONSTERS
In further efforts to improve the life of the melee classes, dungeon monster skills that target a random player, or the furthest away player, 2nd highest aggro player, etc. rather than the player with the most aggro, that do not have a casting time and red target circle warning of incoming damage, have had their damage reduced - either by reducing skill damage min/max numbers, removing or reducing any ignore defense the skill has, reducing critical chance, increasing the cooldown, or a combination of these.

These type of skills are in the game to put pressure on the player and healer but they should not be one-shotting unless you are not geared appropriately for the difficulty of the dungeon. Any skill that has the potential to one-shot should have some kind of warning animation or red casting circle to give a chance of avoiding it or preparing shields etc.

Any random target skill that one-shots you after these changes is either because A. there is a warning and you do not act upon it fast enough, B. you are not geared appropriately for the difficulty of the dungeon, or C. the skill crits because you lack enough of the Protection stat.

TIP: Melee should always try to position themselves BEHIND the target monster, as monsters, especially bosses, often have skills that cleave multiple targets in an arc in front of them. It's rare (but not unheard of) for monsters to do high damage skills in a full circle around them without some kind of warning animation or a red circle on the ground while they are casting the skill.
