Don't forget that Cape Westwind is a thing, so there are huge discrepancies in the difficulty of content.
Were those two changed, though? Also, Cape Westwind, while not terribly hard, did used to have some challenge to it (Namely, the adds overpowering the party and the MASSIVE AoE he used to use), but these days we are so easily outgearing it that it's a laugh.

Also, wasn't one of the worries having a boring LEVELING CURVE? How does commenting on a level 73 Trial not talk about that?
